Charles Coburn (1934)

Note: Probably filmed in the Pathe filmed studio. The item is introduced by the comedian Ronald Frankau. M/S of the veteran comedian / entertainer Charles Coburn wearing a shabby suit and top-hat, his eyes have been blacked out with make-up. He says that he is about to sing a song called (not surprisingly) `Two Lovely Black Eyes'. Several shots of the Coburn singing, he then goes onto sing the same song in French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Hebrew. Duplicate exists in 'Pictorial Revue' - compare for best quality.
