WHITE CORRIDORS

£260.00

Original British 27 inch x 40 inch 1-Sheet Poster for the 1951 Pat Jackson Hospital Drama WHITE CORRIDORS, based on the novel by Helen Ashton and starring James Donald, Googie Withers, Godfrey Tearle, Petula Clark, Moira Lister, Jack Watling and Basil Radford.

White Corridors, a hospital drama first shown in June 1951, belongs to the small class of fictional films that deny themselves a musical score. Even the brief passages that top and tail the film, heard over the initial credits and the final image, were added against the wish of its director, Pat Jackson. Jackson had spent the first ten years of his career in documentary, joining the GPO Unit in the mid-1930s and staying on throughout the war after its rebranding as Crown, and the denial of music is clearly part of a strategy for giving a sense of documentary-like reality to the fictional material of White Corridors.
