Derby Day

Anna Neagle and Michael Wilding star in this classic portmanteau film that portrays the fates and fortunes of a group of disparate characters on their way to the Derby at Epsom Downs. Co-starring Googie Withers and John McCallum and directed by Herbert Wilcox, Neagle's husband and long-time collaborator Derby Day is presented as a brand-new High Definition transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited aspect ratio. Each year, thousands of people make their way to Epsom for the greatest fixture on the racing calendar. These little clusters of people, each unknown to the other, are all strangely incongruous. This year, however, some are destined to be intertwined before the day's end in both joy and despair.
