In the February 1933 issue of Sound and Shadow, there is an advertisement for a newly formed American film import company, Starrex Films. Headquartered in Madras (now called Chennai), India, this film distribution company specialized in American action movies, one of America’s top action stars at the time being Tom Tyler. The first title on Starrex Films list was “Honor of the Mounted” from 1932.
Sound & Shadow was a monthly trade publication based in India but had offices in Hollywood, London, and Australia.
