Just read James Corden's autobiography. It's great, especially when he's talking about the History Boys.
-
@petesstuff Funded by American studios such as United Artist, MGM and Columbia pictures. Since they also 'own' the film they also have the deciding factor of a majority of what goes into it.
-
@IamDrRocktopus All The James Bond Movies have been produced by London based production company Eon Productions... and other than filmed on location have all been filmed at pinewood studios
-
seems strange they made a film about oxbridge application, but I suppose it is quite a part of British culture - the annual ritual of all the clever sixth formers in the country
-
@Savanna2006 it depends on how you classify what makes a film British. Coincidently i am doing this for my film studies A-levels.

@IamDrRocktopus I think we're both right and wrong to an extent. Funding for the films undoubtedly comes in part from the US, and there are scenes all around the world, but primarily Bond films are shot at Pinewood Studios, 20 miles west of London if Wikipedia is correct. Not one director of a Bond film has been American (again, using Wikipedia here but it's the sort of thing it'd get right), and obviously all the Bond actors have been British/Irish. No idea about producers/writers though.

@Savanna2006 I all bond films are US. Produced, directed, and written by US company's from the start.

Anybody who thinks this film is rubbish needs to go back to school.

@MrHAGaLOT Same! 1:59 is where year 11 hang out :P
@dan2hamilton Love Hot Fuzz and SotD, but you discredit much British cinema: An Education, The Kings Speech, all the Bond movies, the Harry Potter series, The Queen, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Lawrence of Arabia, Trainspotting, semingly every costume drama ever (Atonement, The Duchess, Elizabeth etc etc), and greatest of the lot, fucking Monty Python! We may have some films that aren't great, but at least we had nothing to do with Pearl Harbour, Waterworld or Batman & Robin...

One of the best films I've seen, it's extremely true to life in the 1980's! Great acting and great general screenplay. Needed more recognition than it got!!
