I might be confused what makes a British movie 'British'. The subject matter? The actors? The director? The screenwriter? Original author?

Ones that haven't been mentioned that I enjoy:

- Chariots of Fire
- The Remains of the Day
- Atonement

if those count. :)

looks like it's being interpreted pretty loosely in the thread - set in britain, made in britain, primarily british cast, primarily british subject matter, british director.

i would add all of the harry potter movies - a veritable who's who of british acting talent.

Yeah. I don't know that one but Broadchurch (season 1) was really good.. The Crown was good..

I just started an old comedy series which a friend in London highly recommended and we have the same sense of humour. The Thick of It with Peter Capaldi. He's evil LOL

 
If it is still relevant as this is an old topic.
The one's I haven't seen mentioned yet.
London to Brighton
Legend
Snatch
Eastern promises
wild bill
essex boys (yeah I know...)
Harry Brown
Adulthood
Kidulthood

I totally agree, The Thick of it is superb. You should check out the "spin-off" film they made as well with same staff etc called "In The Loop" (2009) which they made mid-way through the production of the series'.

I think that's exactly what my mate in London said. Malcolm Tucker is his hero heh. The Poms sure know how to swear!!
 
I was going to include this then wasn't sure if it'd be classed as British or American. I decided on British. My mother took me to see it at an arthouse cinema when I was 16.. And she wonders why I turned out like I did!

I've never seen it other than at the cinema because Kubrick didn't want it released on VHS/DVD. Then he died, so they did. It's kind of sacred to me :)
