Interesting views on the UK film industry from Michael Caton-Jones. He criticises the 'cultural dead-hand' of 'heritage Britain' films. Film is certainly a medium for preserving a particular type of heritage; the costume drama leaps most readily to mind. But as Caton-Jones argues, film has the potential to capture so much more, so many alternative narratives and stories, many of which find no outlet and consequently find it harder to stake a claim to being heritage at all.
