Screen Gems is a 1984 album by Elkie Brooks comprising Brooks' interpretations of songs from the movies from the 1920s and 1930s. The album's title references all of the selections being introduced, or prominently featured, in mid-20th-century movie releases. It is notable partly for being the first CD album pressed in the UK, by Nimbus at its factory in Hertfordshire in 1984.
