Q1: What makes a British film?
A british film can be divided into five different categories and they are:
Category A: films made with British money, personnel and resources.
Category B: films co-founded with british money and from foreign investment, but the majority of finance, cultural content and personnel are British.
Category C: films with mostly foreign (but non USA) investment and a small financed input, either financially or creatively.
Category D: films made in the UK with (usually) British cultural content, but financed fully or partly by American companies.
Category E: American films with some British involvement.
British films claim a great number of films under category D and E and a decent amount from B and C but very few are successful as category A films.
