Вредитель (1929)

The Wrecker (German: Der Würger) is a 1929 British-German sound crime film directed by Géza von Bolváry and starring Carlyle Blackwell, Joseph Striker, and Benita Hume. The sound version was a Part-Talkie prepared by Tiffany-Stahl Productions and was copyrighted by them in 1929 in the United States making the sound version public domain. The film has two short sequences with audible dialog at the start and towards the end of the film. The rest of the film features a synchronized musical score with sound effects. Tiffany-Stahl used the sound-on-film RCA Photophone process to record the soundtrack. The film was also issued on sound-on-disc format using Tiffany-Tone (Vitaphone-type) sound discs. The film was based on the play of the same title by Arnold Ridley. It was produced by Michael Balcon for Gainsborough Pictures in a co-production with the German firm Felsom Film.
