What happens

Red Pearls is a 1930 British silent crime film directed by Walter Forde and starring Lillian Rich, Frank Perfitt and Arthur Pusey. It was written by Harry Fowler Mear and Sidney Gilliat based on the novel Nearer! Nearer! by J. Randolph James, and made at the Nettlefold Studios in Walton. The film was produced just as the change to sound films was taking place in Britain. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
