The boys receive some northern hospitality in the "Slaughtered Lamb" pub, awkward, then Brian Glover tells a joke. Love this movie, absolute classic.

For me it’s the one and only Don Logan from sexy beast, legend has jt that between filming, Ben Kingsley remained in such intimidating character that Ray Winstone actually climbed out of a window to escape.

One of the funniest British films ever. Stellar cast, all acting brilliantly. Ian Carmichael, Terry Thomas, Alastair Sim, April Smith.

Love this scene where TT in classic cad mode steals the girl.

Very British movie. Ex army officers on hard times decide to rob a bank. Looks like the perfect crime but the cops are onto them and surround their house and persuade them to come outside and surrender.They have an old drunk with them, not connected to the robbery who also gets thrown in the Police van.

Great movie, Bernard Cribbins, Peter Cushing. Proper British film, low budget but good quality.

This film truly terrified me when I was a child, great storyline and characters, cast include Dana Andrews and Niall McGinnis.

Skeptical American psychologist Dr. John Holden travels to England to investigate a colleague's mysterious death. He clashes with cult leader Julian Karswell, who passes him a cursed runic parchment. Holden must race against time to pass the parchment back before a terrifying fire demon slays him

The ending is superb. Think its probably free on YT or somewhere, great film to watch on a cold October evening !

Watching Get Carter for the first time in a long time: BBC iPlayer. I’m taken with how great the soundtrack is. I tried sampling it in my younger days but couldn’t get it to work.

What other British Film Soundtracks are worth a second (or first) listen?

Two brilliant, seemingly forgotten films.

10 Rillington Place is about the story of Tim Evans, hanged for murders he did not commit. John Hurt does a tremendous job as Tim Evans, even doing the accent switches that Evans was known for. Attenborough is also brilliant as the rather creepy Christie.

Let Him Have It is in a similar vein. Derek Bentley is handed for a murder committed by his accomplice, who was too young to hang. Bentleys complicity in the murder is justified by his use of the phrase "Let him have it!". The prosecution claimed he meant it in the figurative sense of "Shoot him". The defence claimed it was Bentley calling to Craig to hand over the gun. Eccleston does a tremendous job.

Two brilliant films about two very I terestin and tragic stories. Funnily enough, a musician contemporary to the two cases, Ewan Maccoll, wrote songs about both.

Before I saw it today. I did think it was, because of the two main leads.

Hi! I'm doing research on British social realism in cinema, specifically on films set in former mining and industrial communities, and I'd really value perspectives from people who actually lived in or near these places.

A few questions if you're willing (you don't have to answer them all):

1. Films like Brassed Off (1996), Billy Elliot (2000), and The Full Monty (1997) are set in communities devastated by deindustrialisation and the miners' strike. Did they feel like an accurate portrait of what those years were like? Did they make you feel seen, or did they simplify or romanticise your community's experience?

2. All three films end with some kind of individual or communal triumph — the band plays on, the men strip, the boy dances. Did that feel honest to you, or did it let the political system off the hook by turning structural devastation into an uplifting story?

3. During the years of Thatcher's cuts and the miners' strike, British cinema was also producing elegant period dramas like Chariots of Fire and A Room with a View. Did that kind of cinema feel relevant to your community at all? Did it feel like it was speaking to you?

This post is for a study, any honest answer, positive or negative, would be very useful. Thank you!

Not only was this the best sheep-based movie of the year (sorry, Hugh), it is probably the funniest new movie I've seen all year too. Once you're past the incredible detail Aardman apply to their work, the jokes just pile on. For me though it was the nods to countless horror movies, Michael Jackson and even The Wombles.

The fact I wasn't the only middle-aged lone cinemagoer there, and there were plenty of groups of all ages too, highlights how good StS really is.

Lovely film, escaped convict hides on a farm and because of how he looks the local children believe him to be Jesus.

I've yet to see this film.

But my understanding is it has two horrific scenes, one left to the viewers imagination and one, the ending ...it skips the imagination part?

Awesome surreal movie in case you haven't watched it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXLRdeYFHss
