Beginning in the 1930s, England’s Ealing Studios began to produce films, most notably comedies and documentaries. It was in the 1950s that the studio really hit its stride, however, when they embarked on a new kind of comedy, one that was deeply satirical and which poked fun at the institutions of British society. Best of all, the studio provided a sort of “training ground” for such soon-to-be illustrious actors as Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers, and Stanley Holloway, all of whom would become important actors and comedians in the years to come.
