Hi All,
I've just come across this website and thought it would be a good idea to join as I've always been interested in a "Good old British movie"


Regards to all

Steve

Thanks for the advice Steve. I now have the saltire displayed, and I now know what an avatar is! Maybe next I shall progress to smilies and witty signatures? And then I shall endeavour to make some kind of intelligent contribution to this forum...

Well done, and that's a nice woodcock in your avatar. Do many people comment that your wife/sister/mother must be a game bird?

Morning all !

I've been reading the posts on this forum for a few weeks - and I thought it was about time that I introduced myself.

I don't claim to be an expert on films or TV, though I have seen quite a lot. It's very nice to find a forum where people don't spend all their time pretending to be "cool" Americans, or arguing about what is or is not politically correct !

Actually, no. However, I do remember a long while ago, when walking in the woods with my girlfriend, she suddenly said she was game... so I shot her. Fortunately I missed and we have now been married 38 years!

But I thought we were supposed to be discussing films? So here's a question; do you (or anybody else) know if the short film "The Blue Boy" (TV, 1994, Emma Thompson) was ever released commercially in the UK? And if so, where can I get a copy? Because no-one, apart from IMDB, seems to have heard of it!

Smile Intro from OGS

Hello everyone. I am OGS from Surrey and pleased to be joining the Britmovie forum. I am interested in the old classic British films; the sort they just don't make any more.

Hello and welcome. We get plenty of media studies students on here, expecting us to do their essays and projects for them. We always help them, but by telling them how they should do the work themselves
On some very rare occasions we get one who has actually got a proposition of their own which can then be discussed. But that's quite rare.

Smile A Quick Introduction

Morning All,

As a newbie to BritMovie I'd like to introduce myself.

My names Neil and ICT manager for a local company. When I have the time my main pastime is music (listening, collecting and playing) but my secondary one is film.

I like silent comedy (especially Charlie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy, etc), animation of many kinds and eras (Betty Boop being a favourite) and films both UK and foreign.

To give you and idea of my film tastes here in no particular order are the most regular entries in my top ten (dependent on my mood) -

A Canterbury Tale / A Matter of Life and Death / The Nightmare Before Christmas / Harvey / Belleville Rendez-vous / early Betty Boop cartoons / Amelie / Goldrush / Pan's Labrynth / Titfield Thunderbolt / Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi / Y Tu Mama / Hobson's Choice / but my number one favourite for many years is To Kill a Mockingbird.

Looking forward to discussing classic Brit films and television.

Cheers, Neil
