Private Leslie Howard Film Found
A British documentary-maker has discovered several hours of lost personal film footage of Leslie Howard, one of Britain’s most revered actors and a matinee idol. The legendary star of classic films such as “Gone with the Wind,” “The Scarlet Pimpernel” and “Pygmalion” (in which he’s pictured, above, with Wendy Hiller) in the 1930s can be seen for the first time in five hours of home movies, described by one historian as “a treasure chest.”
