So This Is London (play)
So This Is London is a comedy play by the American writer Arthur Goodrich, first staged in 1922. The play depicts an Anglo-American culture clash, in which a wealthy anglophobic American shoe manufacturer arrives in London to discover his son is marrying the daughter of British aristocrats.[1]
Adaptations
The play was turned into a film of the same name on two occasions. The first, produced in America in 1930, starred Will Rogers and Irene Rich, and the second, produced in Britain in 1939, featured Alfred Drayton and George Sanders.

gollark: That is definitely* a reasonable reason to dislike people. Also, how do you know that they consumed soy?
gollark: I mean, something something... selection bias? There's probably a more specific word. But you're more likely to see ridiculous extreme things if you seek out people who go around talking about this lots.
