Okay, I know I said last term that I didn't want to watch any more comedies ever again dear god but okay, now that I'm teaching British cinema I've really gone to the other extreme.

(British cinema is really depressing. So far. A fascinating history lesson for me! But, man, documentary realism/the social problem film/the British new wave? NONE of them are exactly light and fluffy...)

Are you watching anything Minghella?

No, alas! We're really not watching anything that I would call particularly interesting, save Billy Elliot in the final week.

If you fancy yet more, get Cathy Come Home out of the library - not a film per say, just an amazing piece of based-on-real-events social tv that made housing associations happen
