Billy Merson Singing 'Desdemonia'

1926 · 4 min Music Comedy

'Billy Merson, the great Nottingham-born music hall performer, presents one of his signature numbers. The film clearly captures Merson's comic brilliance - he not only sings, but dances, skips and indulges in a lot of creative business with a lyre. Merson had been making films since 1915 and Desdemonia is often cited as Britain's first sound film.' (Robin Baker, BFI)

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Billy Merson Singing 'Desdemonia' is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1926. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
