The Village Squire is a 1935 British comedy film directed by Reginald Denham and starring David Horne, Leslie Perrins, Moira Lynd and Vivien Leigh. It was based on a play by Arthur Jarvis Black. A village's amateur production of MacBeth is aided by the arrival of a Hollywood star. This provokes the fierce resistance of the village squire who hates films.
The film was a quota quickie, produced at Elstree Studios for Paramount to help them meet their yearly quota set down by the British government. Today the film is best known for marking the debut of Vivien Leigh.
