Harmony Heaven is a 1930 British musical film directed by Thomas Bentley and starring Polly Ward, Stuart Hall and Trilby Clark. This film had Pathechrome inserts, and was one of Britain's first two musical films, along with Raise the Roof.[1]
It was made at Elstree Studios with sets designed by the art director John Mead.
Alfred Hitchcock is sometimes cited as an uncredited co-director but he did not actually work on the film. It has been released on UK DVD by Network Distributing.[2]
