Wiki.
A Cottage on Dartmoor (a.k.a. Escape from Dartmoor) is a 1929 British part-talkie sound film, directed by Anthony Asquith and starring Norah Baring, Uno Henning and Hans Adalbert Schlettow. The cameraman was Stanley Rodwell. In addition to a sequence with audible dialogue or a talking sequence, the film also featured a synchronized musical score with sound effects and English intertitles. The soundtrack was recorded using the Klangfilm Tobis sound recording process. A cut down edited silent version was made for theatres that had not yet converted to sound but this version is no longer extant.
It was the last of Asquith's films before fulling converting to all-talking pictures. The film was produced during the transition period from silents to talkies in British cinema, a point which is referenced in the film itself.
