QUEEN OF HEARTS stars Lancashire’s own Gracie Fields as Gracie Perkins, a seamstress who is mistaken for a wealthy patroness of the arts. The fun begins when Gracie is approached to back a new stage show. Hoping to crash society — or at least land a part in the show herself — she keeps up her masquerade. To absolutely no one’s surprise, she’s the hit of the show and as icing on the cake ends up winning the heart of leading man Derek Cooper (John Loder).
The inimitable Gracie Fields illuminates the screen in her sole 1935 vehicle LOOK UP AND LAUGH. The Lancashire-born comedienne is cast as Gracie Pearson, one of several clerks in a small-town market. When Gracie and her co-workers are threatened with dismissal by a chain-store takeover, they manage to save their jobs by digging up a Royal Charter, declaring their store an autonomous nation. The film was based on a story by J. B. Priestley, who undoubtedly didn’t include Gracie’s traditional cheer-up songs in his original synopsis.
