Tilly's Party

More riotous comedy featuring Alma Taylor and Chrissie White as Tilly and Sally, a popular screen duo in 1910s Britain. The action feels a little disjointed at times, and is really little more than a number of scenes of wholesale destruction followed by a chase, but it's full of energy

Alma Taylor and Chrissie White misbehave and are told they can't attend the party. Go to your music lessons right now! But with the aid of a couple of sailors, they organize an escape.

Miss Taylor and White often played two mischievous girls for producer Cecil Hepworth, and were cute, lively and engaging. While this comedy ends with the usual chase, the people chasing them seem to go about it in a realistic manner. The two of them are a lot of innocent fun here.

Both of them would have substantial careers with Hepworth, fading as changes in taste in the 1920s made Hepworth's fare less popular. Miss White would marry her frequent director, Harry Edwards, and fade from the screen after 1934; Miss Taylor retired from the screen in 1936, but made a few uncredited appearances in the 1950s.
