Let the People Sing is a 1942 British comedy film directed by John Baxter,[1] and starring Alastair Sim, Fred Emney and Edward Rigby.

[2] The screenplay concerns the people of a small town who band together to try to save their music hall from closure.

[3] Time Out wrote that "John Baxter was the British director probably least patronizing and most sympathetic to the working classes and their culture during the '30s and '40s, and even if his films now often seem naïve and simplistic, it's good at least to see an honest and humorous attempt to deal with life outside Mayfair.

Less scathing than Love on the Dole (his best known film), this adaptation of a J.B. Priestley novel is a spritely, vaguely Capra-esque comedy... Fred Emney steals the show as a government arbitrator susceptible to the charms of alcohol.
