Would You Believe It! is a 1929 British silent comedy film directed by Walter Forde and starring Forde, Pauline Johnson and Arthur Stratton. It was made at the Nettlefold Studios in Walton-on-Thames and released as a supporting feature.[2] Due to the general public's apathy toward silent films, it was quickly released in a sound version that features a synchronized musical score with sound effects.
