Learn how to Charleston from the comfort of your cinema seat! Receive guidance on the correct way to wear a cloche hat and how to prevent getting mud spots on your stockings. Glean ideas for brightening up boring parties and watch “Resista” altering her weight at will. This is the kind of joyful entertainment the wonderful cinemagazine Eve’s Film Review provides.

These weekly releases graced cinema screens between 1921 and 1933 and celebrated women at work and play. Hobbies, passions and simple pleasures were celebrated with great glee, and there is much for the modern audience to enjoy too, men included. Come and enjoy a sample of these gloriously entertaining short films presented by film archivist Jenny Hammerton. You might be inspired to take up women’s football or wing-walking!
