GEORGE FORMBY
POPULAR FILM STAR SCREENINGS IN EUROPE British fPms, are still finding their way into the cinemas of blockaded Europe. Thanks to co-operation between the. authorities and the British film distributors, audiences in ScnndinWia continue to enjoy the films' of comedians like George Forihby and Arthur Askey. Formby, who has j|Ust completed, a deal of showing his films in the United States, is also a great favourite in Europe, despite hisi extremely localised Lancashire humour, and it is one of the oddities of the entertainment world that he should export so successfully. The strong demand for his films, however, both now and before the war, leiaves no doubt of his popularity in Eiuropean countries.
