| Abstract: | The paper states that British cinemas are busier than ever, yet the British film industry is facing a crisis. November was on course to be the most successful month in British cinemas for 30 years with the arrival of the latest installments of James Bond and Harry Potter films, in the build up to Christmas. More than half of the 3,000 cinema screens in the UK are showing Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and "Die Another Day", the latest Bond adventure, which opened a week later. Following hot on their heels is the second installment of "Lord of the Rings", released in December. But in the process, a host of independent British films are being pushed to the fringes of the cinema circuit, or not even seeing the light of day, to make way for the three blockbusters. |
