With films such as Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch and Bridget Jones Diary, this country has shown that it is more than capable of matching the films coming from the U.S.
Imagine if this country had the cash available like Hollywood does to invest in its films ! But even without the huge constant flow of money and massive studios, the people in the film industry here have proved that a huge budget can't beat a damn good story !
Lock, Stock and also Snatch are 2 of the best films I've seen in ages and I'm hoping to see Bridget Jones soon too. Guy Ritchie has done us proud and I hope he gets even more success with future films.
Of course there are plenty of British Actors / Actresses abroad doing well for themselves, but its even nicer to see them in films that have been made in this country because it shows we have both the Actors and film makers to match Hollywoods.
Maybe over time, if people start investing more in our film industry, we'll see great quality films coming out regularly like the ones I've mentioned. Just think of the special effects we'll be able to pull off too ;-)
Afterall, we did the effects for the Star Wars films. They might not be as spectacular as the ones we see now, but considering these effects are from the late 70's, early 80's, they were the best around at the time !
Heres to our film industry ! Long may it continue ! :-)

My everyday is slightly different today.
I am mainly avoiding work. I was impressed with everyone's first assignment and am looking forward to reading TMA 02. this is a much broader topic than TMA 01 so your selection of what to include will be important. There should be enjoyably more variety. Do remember to include at least 3 theorists into detailed discussion. The use of the term 'Site of the Everyday' and also 'this is a contested issue' should be of value. Please contact me if you have not been able to read my comments on TMA 01.
Enjoy your reading,
Jacquie

Hi I have finally sent TMA 01 in. I have been helping my sister who broke her leg, at the same time where I work has just opened a superstore so I have had to do night shifts. Hopefully the TMA02 will be in on time fingers crossed. good luck to everyone
Really pleased you are using forum. You should congratulate yourself on being one of the few who have not needed an extension. I will mark asap, though I am babysitting grandchildren tonight, helping son move flat tomorrow and nightmare am having some problems with etma system. I did not have these problems last year. It will be resolved by the weekend though I have to depend on partner for that. ALL THE BEST jACQUIE
Oops! Sorry!! I shouldn't have been so impatient. I should've waited a bit longer before pressing the button again.
Hi everyone
I've just submitted my TMA01 after thinking I wasn't going to make it on time. I started off with such good intentions when I received my books and wrote lots of notes. Then I put them to one side when I went away on holiday and kept putting off the moment when I needed to pick them up again. I think it takes time to get back into the swing of studying again after the summer break. Hopefully it'll be easier with TMA02. I'm really intrigued with the concept of time and hope to arrange my own a little better now.
I hope everyone else is finding the course interesting.

Dear All,
Sorry I won't be running an intro tutorial this year and everyhing will have to be virtual. Apologies also over my tardiness in updating all aspects of my website. I depend on my partner to upload that. I can however easily keep this up to date myself. Please feel free to share comments here about the course.
Looking forward to first TMAs.
