What makes a British film British?

British Films.
If it is to be a film funded by the Britain, chances are it will be low budget, quite unsuccessful, and totally over shadowed by he monsters of the industry, mainly the big shots from U.S. But there are some good British funded, British made and British acted films. Guy Ritchie. Vinnie Jones, Ray Winstone, Gary Oldman, Jason Statham, those are some of the names that have given the more successful British films a name.

The other type of British film are those funded outside of Britain, but with British directors. Ridley Scott, for example, has a host of major films to his name, from Alien to Gladiator. But although these films have many British people in the making of them, I wouldnt call them British, because they are not exclusive. Many British funded films never seem to take themselves seriously, they know they cant compete with the big blockbusters, so they carve their own niche, and when it comes to Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Shaun of the Dead, and other similaur films, this is clear, and for those particulaur examples, works.
