why are british films so rubbish?
sorry but the golden age of british cinema seems light years away to me
I know the meda tells us otherwise but I dont buy it
british output seems to have been limited and stale for decades, yes we produce some great actors, but overall our output is poor.
over the past 50 years theres been a few classics , such as the name of the father, dr strangelove, alfie, zulu, saturday night sunday morning, ladykillers, the hill, italion job, my left foot, remains of the day, loads of the bond movies , or quirky maverick movies like billy elliott, twin town or trainspotting etc
but in the past decade or more ? classics? ummmm............
There seems to be a dearth of scripts and commitment to story, maybe with the collapse of industry we have lost our characters, our stories and our mojo
Sorry but a few harry potters doesnt do it for me? I dont like daniel craig as bond either but Im in a minority there, so wheres the great british films?
meanhile the yanks churn out 100s of movies,yes turkeys too but they still produce a huge cross section of great movies....why?
