Classic British Thrillers (Full Frame) : The British Cinematograph Films Act of 1927 was passed to give motion pictures made in the United Kingdom an edge over Hollywood imports.

"The Phantom Light" (1935): Michael Powell directed this creepy quota quickie before his success with the Academy Award(R) winning "Black Narcissus" and "The Red Shoes" and the cult classic "Peeping Tom". The disappearance of two lighthouse keepers stationed on the desolate coast of Wales is linked to the specter of a rogue beacon that lures freight ships to their destruction on the rocks. Gordon Harker (Alfred Hitchcock's "The Ring") and Binnie Hale ("Love From A Stranger") star as bickering sleuths who must solve the mystery of "The Phantom Light" or become its next victims! "Red Ensign" (1935): This fact-based expose of corruption and sabotage in the British shipping industry is another early work from acclaimed director Michael Powell. With England's commercial fleet in decline, idealistic shipbuil...

Live Forever: The Rise And Fall Of Brit Pop : From the produces of Academy Award winning "One Day In September." "Live Forever" is a film about a period in the Nineties when anything seemed possible. Britain was of a time, of a people, of a place, which captured the world's imagination. A bright new culture deserved a bright new government and it seemed, for a little while at least, that Britain had one. "Live Forever" is a story that builds to that moment in the Nineties when the politicians recognized the emergence of a vibrant British popular culture and seized it, guerrilla-fashion, to re-brand the country. In the mid-Nineties Britain was swinging again and Oasis' debut album "Definitely Maybe" captured the mood of the times; a swaggering and epic celebration of the joys of living purely for the moment. Along with Pulp and Blur, Oasis had kick-stated an upsurge in home-grown musical talent. It heralded a new music scene, which became known as Britpop. But it wasn't just the music. British galleries, catwalks and records were the envy of the rest of the world. British culture rocked and cool Britannia had arrived. Scene Selection...
