REPRESENTATION

AND COLLECTIVE IDENTITY

National identity in British Cinema

What does it mean to be British?

Students explore the concept of Britishness.

Mind map out ideas in pairs and feedback to the class.

Categorise into historical and current values and also into specific countries e.g. Scottish, Welsh etc

Images and props can be used to stimulate discussionStudents should try to think of Britain as a collective and avoid just thinking of English, Scottish, Welsh or Irishidentity.

If this occurs it can form the basis of a useful discussion

What is a British film?

Students to list as many films they consider British as possible justifying why.

Compile central list and identify common features e.g. cast, crew, funding, location and content

Film posters for British films and American films made in the UK e.g. Harry Potterwww.imbd.com

This will be primarily based on students own knowledge and supported by the teachers knowledge.

A definition of what a British film is can be found at www.culture.gov.uk

The IMDB can also be used as this has images of posters used alongside production companies involved inthe film
