The 10 British film directors included in this collection of interviews and essays demonstrate the diversity of the British industry. Complete with filmographies, bibliographies, stills and production shots, this study considers the realism of Ken Loach and Stephen Frears, the satire of Bill Forsyth and Lindsay Anderson, the mainstream success of Richard Attenborough, Alan Parker and John Schlesinger, and the "art house" appeal of Peter Greenaway, Nicolas Roeg and Derek Jarman. Examining their influences, styles and working methods, this insider view of the British film industry also reveals opinions of its future.
