Exasperated, not angry.
did you know Margaret 'Gone With The Wind' Mitchell was on her way to see ACT when she was hit by a speeding car. She was knocked out, and died five days later, having never recovered consciousness.

This looks good. Is it just a little bit corny and tacky?

Not "great movies" by any means, but I really enjoy the modern lowish-budget British black comedies that the likes of Film4 have funded. They have a unique feel to them. Examples that spring to mind are Shallow Grave, Severance Attack the Block etc.
All else apart, they're a nice antidote to the US impression of Britain as portrayed in Mr Bean and Love Actually
Ps - Whilst googling for the name of Severance I found out that Seven Psychopaths is categorised as a 'British film' too. I had no idea. Quality film that.

When I was 16, I went to see 'Morgan: A Suitable Case For Treatment' (the film that sort of launched David Warner) and I remember being really impressed by it. But I was 16.
Recently, I tried to watch it again. I didnt really give it a decent chance but it didn't seem quite so clever and funny as I remembered and I gave up after about 10 minutes. I shall give it another chance when the opportunity arises...

Never got round to seeing Severance. Worth it?

I think so. It's fun.
Dead of Night (1945)
I seem to remember Richard Attenborough citing this as the idea behind his film Magic with Anthony Hopkins.
