Kursaal Southend (1931)

No title. Various rides at the Kursaal funfair in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. Some of the footage is taken from the front of the roller coaster and whilst on other rides - moving shots. Good footage of lots of girls having fun at the fair. Nice shot of girls being rocked backwards and forwards in a little boat. Slow motion footage of the water chute. Other rides include: a cycling ride - looks like lots of fun with loads of girls cycling around. "The only caterpillar Eve likes" - the caterpillar ride. Cups and saucers ride - the girls are swung around. Point of view shots from on the ride. Reversed film of the water chute - the carriage appears to be moving backwards. May have been item in Eve's Film Review issue 318. Safety print exists. FILM ID:762.13 FOR LICENSING ENQUIRIES VISIT http://www.britishpathe.com/
