Border Crossing: Film in Ireland, Britain and Europe - Softcover

These essays bring together critics, academics and practitioners - including Philip French, Colin McArthur, Steve McIntyre, David Puttnam and Kevin Rockett - to discuss the economic and cultural significance of Europe for British and Irish film-makers. This volume addresses such issues as: what is the economic and cultural value of co-operation? What relationship does film have to Irish, British and European cultural identities? Are Scottish and Irish film-makers particularly well-placed to engage with questions of identity in the new Europe?
