PATHÉ FRANCE 17.5MM SOUND FILM CATALOGUE
Where titles have been taken from Pathé Natan catalogues, the length in reels (ie cinema 'reels' - approx 9 to 11 minutes running time) may not be exact, but if feature film running times are listed, these are from contempory French film reference sources and should be correct (17.5mm versions were normally issued uncut). The 17.5mm film programmes were issued on 300 metre (approx 1000 foot) spools running about 18 to 22 minutes - hence each spool was effectively two 'reels' long. Where a film number is in italics, this refers to the programme reference number, not the individual film.

Notes: Méphisto was such a long film it was issued in two parts (separate programmes)
La Nuit Est A Nous was the first full length French film with synchronised speech,
although actually made in Germany.
The Mickey Mouse cartoons come from what appears to be a 1933/1934 catalogue,
so they must all predate this.
Pathé launched 17.5mm sound film in France in 1933, a year later it was launched in the UK by Pathéscope Ltd.
As far as I know, in France
17.5mm sound was mainly used in the smaller 'rural' cinemas in
the Pathé circuit. Hence the films were generally normal cinema
features and shorts and presumably not actually offered for sale.
We now know that theatrical trailers (bandes annonces) were also
produced for at least some of the titles.
By late 1939 Pathéscope in the UK had abandoned the gauge, probably because 9.5mm sound was doing so well. The 17.5mm film library was sold off and 17.5mm was no more in the UK ........
In France 17.5mm continued in use in the smaller Pathe circuit rural cinemas until 1941 when it was banned by the German Nazi occupying forces.
