Three Aspidistras (1941)

No title - The Three Aspidistras singing. Probably filmed at Pathe studios, London. C/U of an aspidistra, it moves out of the way to reveal an old fashioned parlour, one man is playing the piano and the other man and woman are looking at an album. Various shots as they sing songs in operatic style in a very deadpan manner, they seem to dislike each other even though they are singing about love and give the occasional glare in the other’s direction. The woman holds her note too long and the man nudges her, they finish the song and bow. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
