Default How Do You Do, Billy Bentley here
Hello,

i don't know if i'm posting this properly as I'm new to this lark. Im a former Londoner, now in New York for almost thirty years and as time passes I find myself more and more interested in British Films. Especially those made prior to the 1980's. In the last two and a half weeks I have seen nice prints of "10 Rillington Place" which was much better than I remembered and "It Always rains On Sunday" which I'd never seen before. Having been spoiled, it will probably be a while before anything else British appears on the New York City revival circuit. I have a list of fims i'd like to see, but am under the impression I have to be a good boy and wait until I'm allowed to post on certain forums (a bit like being a milk monitor). Anyway this looks like a nice "local' and I hope to pick up some nice tips. Cherers to you all. BB.

Hello Billy,
Welcome to the forum.

I shouldn't be too sure about it being a while before anything British is seen in NYC. I do know a couple of people who live and work there who are big fans of British films.

Although they've just done up to Massachusetts for a few months to do some work up that way. Odd, their last major piece of work was made up in Massachusetts as well. They must like it up there

Anyway, until they get back, there's always TCM (US). They've been showing quite a few recently.

Steve

Hello David,
Welcome to the forum.

No, I wouldn't say you were blind or dumb

The search is just under the banner at the top of each page, where it says

Default Introduction
I've just joined this site after a search on the web for film footage and stills, and I can't believe I haven't joined this site before! Looking at some of the discussion threads, these are conversations I've been looking for for SO long!

I've been involved in mostly video production and broadcasting on cable and satellite television for some year. I still make the odd production mainly for education or training and have recently moved to new formats (for me), hence the user name.

I'm really looking forward to reading more of the topics in the forum and to joining in as and when. Cheers,
16:9

Default hello
I was encouraged to join this forum after reading today's guardian feature on brit b movies. like many on here, remember the b movies more than the main features. actors like john bentley and peter reynolds were on my local screens in harrow more often than most famous movie stars, as an early teenager, I was more than slightly smitten by peggy cummins! I gather she married a toff and went to live in ireland. does anyone recall the name of the technicolor feature she made which centred around horse racing?

Post hello
i somehow stumbled upon this site just surfing "the net". I have a preference for british films of yesteryear. The style, quality of production even in so called "B" movies was so impressive. I love them!
