European films -- what a joy!

Half the European films you watch in the cinema are supported by the EU's MEDIA programme. The programme supports the distribution of 9 out of every 10 feature films in Europe that are distributed outside their originating country. Two and a half million aficionados watch over 15 000 European screenings in more than 100 festivals funded by MEDIA. Every year 300 new European film projects are supported by MEDIA.

heh, Britain is a part of EU, and Europe. so of course they use them. you might hate the EU, but that's a comletely different thing.

British films are european films.

European films are the best. I just wish that they would make more environmentally friendly films.

[DavidW894]

yes because it's the budget that makes a good film. You probably think that Avatar is the best movie ever made.

I'm sorry, but one does not require a brain to be able to understand most American movies.

Most of them are just a pure waste of money.

That's about it.

Oh oh, Italian film Cannibal Holocaust, very disturbing ^^

European films are depressive. Every time I see an European movie I become sad as well as everything in Europe. But the art is worth. ;)

I think the EU has partly funded all of those that are showed here.

[Ricardas Ulozas]

It would be really interesting to see if EU has funded (at least partly) any of theose films...
