More about the book

The book explores the evolution of the British film industry, starting from the Lumiere brothers' first screening in 1896 to the challenges faced by production companies in the late 20th century. It examines the interplay between British cinema and society, highlighting the concepts of 'official' versus 'unofficial' cinema. Through this lens, it reveals how British films have oscillated between being viewed as 'respectable' and 'disreputable,' reflecting the changing standards of what is considered 'good cinema.'
