Clarendon Film Company - Wiki slovník

The Clarendon Film Company was a British film studio founded by Percy Stow and Henry Vassal Lawley.^[1]^[2]

The studio was founded in 1904 in Croydon, primarily as a movie camera equipment company, and began to make short films as a side-line. It was named after its original location off Clarendon Road, and later moved to Limes Road.^[3]^[4] Among the films made by the company was The Tempest (1908), adapted for the screen by Langford Reed

In 1909 it took part in the Paris Film Congress, a failed attempt by leading European producers to form a cartel similar to that of the MPPC in the United States.^{[citation needed]}
