E.A. Dupont uncredited?


imdb seem to have mysteriously not given any credit to EA Dupont, the director. This is baffling, as he is quite clearly credited in the films er... opening credits.

How strange.

The opening credits have "An E. A. Dupont Production", which doesn't necessarily mean that he was the director. There seems to be some very small writing underneath the actor's names and under the "Piccadilly" ads on the sides of the busses, but you would have to have a small movie screen to make any of it out.

Yes, but it's well known that Dupont made the film, even at the time (he was a major director). So it's baffling that imdb choose not to openly acknowledge this.
