A comedy classic from the 1940s is set to hit screens once again in Ledbury.

'Sullivan's Travels', first released in 1941, sees a successful director, set on producing a gritty film about the troubles of the poor, willingly experience poverty first-hand against his producers' wishes.

With nothing but a dime in his pocket, he sets off in tramp's clothing to learn about the harsh reality of being poor.

Directed by Preston Sturges and starring Joel McCrea and Veronica Lake, the classic will hit the screen at the Market Theatre on Friday (July 26), at 7.30pm.
