Whilst this is not a book that would generally be my first choice too read, it is a book that is rather interesting to go through and learn about different aspects of British cinema i did not know about. The book is split into 5 parts, "Debates and Controversies", "Industry, Genre, Representation", "British Cinema 1895-1939", "British cinema from world war II to the 70's" and "Contemporary British Cinema."

Somethings i have learnt from this book include:

• How much American film culture changed British cinema
• The level of which WWII effected Cinema and changed censorships for movies

Whilst I have not completely been inspired into researching further into this book, i have found the content to be interesting and understand why people would feel inspired and continue too research further into the subject
