New Thomas Hamilton’s DVD on sale
Leslie Howard: On & Off Screen (original DVD of home movies, interviews etc.)
A fascinating in depth look at the home movie archive of Leslie Howard and the stories told by his daughter Doodie (Leslie Ruth), interviewed by film-maker Thomas Hamilton in 2006 for his documentary Leslie Howard: The Man Who Gave a Damn.
Leslie Howard was an avid home movie enthusiast, who seldom went far without a camera by his side. From 1927 to 1942 Howard filmed constantly, amassing a huge collection of celluloid memories. Howard’s family and friends often gathered in their private cinema at Stowe Maries to screen these films.
Hamilton recounts how he stumbled across these precious reels, just in time to save them from decay.
The DVD is produced by Repo Films and manufactured on demand.

Tom, are these films available on a CD? If so, how do I obtain them? How is your follow-up documentary on Leslie progressing (the fatal flight from Lisbon). Wink sent me a lot of information on #777 before he died, and Fenella has filled me in).
Hope all is going well with you, Tom.

Hello Leslie,
Nice to hear from you and thanks for your question.
But I don’t understand.
A “CD” is an audio only disk which you play on a CD player. Or you can use it to hold files such as mp4’s – but this would only be playable on a computer – with none of the functions a DVD has. Also the capacity of a “CD” is much lower so the program would have to be compressed – leading to a loss of quality.
However a “DVD” disk such as this one, which is Region 0, can be played on either a computer or a regular Dvd player. It’s a much better option.
Marie has put an ebay link so that you can get it from me through that or if you prefer to email me direct I can answer any other questions you have.
Best wishes
Tom
