IAC Role of Honour
Awards & Trophies: Denham Trophy

The Denham Trophy (aka Alexander Korda gold cup)
presented by London Film Productions Limited
for the best entry by an IAC Affiliated Club

The Denham Trophy for best entry by a Club.

A staggering recognition of the importance of amateur film making by one of the great British Studios.
There are gaps in the records. We would welcome any information you can give us.

In the early 21st century the giving of trophies was stopped. The cup is awarded at the annual festival but not taken away by the winners who receive a small prize to keep.
