East Is East (1916 film)
East Is East is a 1916 British silent film drama directed by Henry Edwards, who also starred in the film with Florence Turner.
The film is an early example of the plot premise which would prove very popular in the British silent film canon: that of a character (almost always a pretty young girl) from the working-class East End of London being suddenly thrust by circumstance into the daunting milieu of West End high society.
The full print of "East Is East" survives, and is well regarded by historians of British silent film.
Writing for the British Film Institute, Bryony Dixon notes: "Edwards seems to have had an innate or instinctive understanding of cinema space both as an actor and director, and despite being hampered as everyone else at that early date by rather fixed sets and camera positions, he uses himself and the other actors to convey the space beyond the fourth wall, creating the illusion of a satisfyingly convincing world."
She also notes: "The locations are well chosen and evocative of a bygone era, particularly the lovely scenes in the Kentish hop fields", and that Edith Evans in a very early screen role "outrageously upstages everyone at every opportunity".
Although largely a serious drama, the film also includes scenes of visual humour arising from the awkward collision of East End and West End manners and habits.
