Does anyone remember Intercontinental Films of Bridgend, Wales. They had a thick catalogue of old titles. The name Gerald Price comes to mind but I might have the wrong name. What happened to the company and where did the films go?

Gerald always had a table at the Tadley convention. He died a few years ago. I have no idea what happed to his films.

Hi all

when I was into 16mm I dealt a lot with Gerald.

Last time I bought from him was about 2006 or 7.

When you rang up it was like turning the clock back to the 1950's...a lovely welsh ladies voice would go..."Intercontinental films...how can I help you"...all in a lovely welsh accent.

I believe that Phil Sheard picked up most of Geralds films after his demise.

Mark
