We’ve been making films at Ealing Studios for over 100 years. And films like St Trinians are proving just as popular today as when the Studio was boosting London’s morale during the Blitz or Michael Balcon and Alexander Korda were creating the classic Ealing Comedies. Ealing has always been at the heart of the British film industry.
