Bringing to mind rockers and royals, Buckingham Palace and the Scottish Highlands,
Britain holds a special interest for international audiences who have flocked in recent
years to quality British exports like
Fish Tank
,
Trainspotting
and
The King’s Speech
.
A series of essays and articles exploring the definitive films of Great Britain, this
addition to Intellect’s
Directory of World Cinema
series turns the focus on England
together with Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
With a focus on the most successful, cerebral and critically important films to have
come out of Britain, this volume explores the diversity of genres found throughout
British film, highlighting important regional variations that reflect the distinctive
cultures of the countries involved. Within these categories Emma Bell and Neil
Mitchell have curated a diverse and rich collection of films for review—from
Hitchcock’s spy thriller
The 39 Steps
to Powell and Pressburger’s art classic
The Red
Shoes
to the gritty and heartfelt
This is England
. Interspersed throughout the book
are critical essays by leading experts in the field providing insight into shifting notions
of Britishness, important industry developments and the endurance of the British
film industry. For those up on their Brit film facts and seeking a challenge for their
expertise, the book concludes with a helpful ‘Test Your Knowledge’ section.
A user-friendly look at the cultural and artistic significance of British cinema from
the silent era to the present,
Directory of World Cinema: Britain
will be an essential
companion to the country’s bright and resurgent film industry.

Welcome
January is always the Janus-faced edition where we
look forward and back at the same time. So it’s apt that
there’s so much in this issue about the moving image
in transition. You may well have expected a still from
The Master
(above) to herald our Review of 2012 – yes,
it’s won our Films of the Year straw poll (see p.51 for
the Top Ten) – but you may be less prepared for an
issue that sets tributes to genius photographer/
fi lmmaker William Klein (p.62) and prince of the
underground Jonas Mekas (p.40) alongside celebration
of the imagery in Ang Lee’s CGI-fest
Life of Pi
(p.26).
Lee’s dazzling visuals could only have been achieved
with digital technology, but we also cover resistance to
the demise of analogue fi lm at Vienna and elsewhere
(p.76). The issue’s sub-theme, meanwhile, is forms of
psychological disturbance – whether it’s the sisterly
blood feud in the revived
What Ever Happened to Baby
Jane?
(p.46), the dilemma of fi nding enough homicidal
types in Martin McDonagh’s
Seven Psychopaths
(p.34) or
the strange powers of the drifter in Bruno Dumont’s
Hors Satan
(p.32). Is this unpredictable behaviour?
Just ask Joaquin Phoenix.
