We embarked on Norwich armer with a notpad and pen ready to take notes on the British film industry and of Course watch a film called Somers town, a film based a friendship shared between two boys both from backrounds many people put in the category of 'Dreggs of society'. The film is directed by Shane Medows. Someone who is notorious for stepping up to the hotseat when confronted with films based on Social realism (Basically doesn't smooth off the edges and tells it how it is).
Before the film we had a women talk to us about British films and the similarities between each one. For example the women definied a British film as a typically low budget film that tended to focus on the midle class
The industry we have today kicked off in the 50's after the war where directors realised the importance of using real life working class people in their movies.
Well thats it from me for now

This needs to be more detailed Joe. And where are you 'before viewing' notes?
