Interesting facts

The Ware Case is a 1928 British silent drama film directed by H. Manning Haynes and starring Stewart Rome, Betty Carter and Ian Fleming. The film was shot by British First National at the Twickenham Studios in London with sets designed by the art director Hugh Gee. The rights for the film were acquired by the parent American company First National Pictures for copyright and distribution of the film in the United States. This explains why the film at this late date was completely silent as by this time First National was routinely supplying Synchronized musical soundtracks to its feature films.
