Storm in a Teacup is directed by Ian Dalrymple and Victor Saville, runs 88 minutes, is made by Victor Saville Productions and London Film Productions, is released by United Artists, is written by Ian Dalrymple and Donald Bull, based on a play by Bruno Frank and James Bridie, is shot in black and white by Max Greene, is produced by Alexander Korda and Victor Saville, is scored by Frederick Lewis, and is designed by Andrej Andrejew. The piece is still very sweet and amusing, for those whose cup of tea is whimsical comedy, and the playing is deft, light hearted and deliciously tasty. Monocle’s Sophie Grove takes a trip to the plantations to uncover the country’s vast potential. While the provost tries to break the reporter who wrote the negative story about him, the story escalates into a criminal case, and it is love at first sight when Burdon (Harrison) meets Gow (Parker)’s lovely daughter, Victoria (Leigh). Turkey’s love of tea is unparalleled but its export market is minimal. Harrison plays a reporter called Frank Burdon, who arrives for a new job on a newspaper in Scotland and then one night decides to cover the small-town story of the local provost (politician), William Gow (Parker), ordering the widowed old lady Mrs Hegarty (Sara Allgood)’s dog Patsy to be put to sleep after she failed to come up with the money for her dog licence. Rex Harrison, Cecil Parker and a young Vivien Leigh kick up a storm over an old Scots lady and a dog licence, in directors Ian Dalrymple and Victor Saville’s 1937 British clever canine caper Storm in a Teacup, motoring on smashing performances and waspish dialogue.
