A story about "Cinema 16 - British Short Films" — 10 weeks ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Although the 16 films vary in quality and value they are all nice to compare and contrast. The collection includes:

  • About a Girl – Brian Percival
  • Boy & Bicycle – Ridley Scott
  • Dear Phone – Peter Greenaway
  • Doodlebug – Christopher Nolan
  • Eight – Stephen Daldry
  • Gasman – Lynne Ramsay
  • Girl Chewing Gum – John Smith
  • Home – Morag McKinnon
  • Joyride – Jim Gillespie
  • Inside Out – Tom & Charles Guard
  • Je T’aime John Wayne – Toby Macdonald
  • The Sheep Thief – Asif Kapadia
  • The Short & Curlies – Mike Leigh
  • Telling Lies – Simon Ellis
  • UK Images – Martin Parr
  • Who’s My Favourite Girl? – Adrian J. McDowall

All have director commentaries although some films are so short the commentary can’t cover much ground which is a shame.

My favourites were Gasman, Je T’aime John Wayne, Girl Chewing Gum and Joyride which is genuinely scary. I realise that I’ve listed a quarter of the films but they are so different to each other it would have been difficult to narrow down further.
