One of over a hundred films made during his lifetime by amateur cineaste Frank Marshall. The filmmaker's two children are cast as the mischievous children.
An insight into the home and pastimes of an affluent family in the 1930s. We can speculate the house featured is almost certainly the Marshall household. It is an example of Marshall's style of filmmaking, characterised by its good humour and buoyant sense of fun.
The film was Specially Commended by the Board of Amateur Cine World 1938.
