John Hill British cinema in the 1980s

issues and themes

During the 1980s the role and identity of British cinema has been changed. This study looks at the increasing domination of the world industry by Hollywood and the response of British filmmaking to this. Attention is given to the role of government and the increasingly close relationship between film and television. Also representations of the past in British cinema are being examined, and how films deal with issues of class, gender and ethnicity.
