BFI Notes


Starter:
  • ·         The last British Film I watched was 'I’ll Manors'
  • ·         The fact that the location was in London and that the actors where predominantly British gave me the impression that this was indeed a British Film.
  • ·         I believe that the recognition of the famous location of London would be appealing to a British audience and also the social realism portrayed in this film.
  • ·         I do also believe that the famous locations will be also appealing to an international audience.
