The Devil's Maze is an all-talking 1929 sound British drama film directed by Gareth Gundrey and starring Renee Clama, Trilby Clark and Ian Fleming. The film was made at the Lime Grove Studios. A cut down edited silent version with intertitles was available for theatres who were not yet wired for sound. [1] It was based on the play Mostly Fools by G.R. Malloch.
The film tells the story of a woman who was seduced by a man and becomes pregnant. In order to uphold her reputation, the woman blames the pregnancy on an explorer whom she believes to be dead. The explorer, however, who is very much alive, makes an unexpected return.
Musical numbers in the sound version of the film include “Four-Ways Suite” by Coates; “You’re My Silver Lining of Love” by Vincent Rose, and the theme song by Louis Levy.
Due to the adult content of the film it was censored or banned in many places. The film was withdrawn from circulation in Dublin, Ireland after protests erupted. [2]
