Mike Leigh's "Happy-Go-Lucky" introduce the world to Poppy, portrayed by Sally Hawkins, who sees the world as it is but exudes positivity in the face of it. In "This is England," Shane Meadows introduced us to Shaun, who struggles with bullying but finds solace with a gang of Skinheads, played by Joseph Gilgun and Stephen Graham. We dig into these two paths toward acceptance in English Film. Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler, with guest Kevin Ford#ryusukehamaguchi #bestmovies

Remember that stuffy movie "The English Patient" that spoiled "Fargo" at the Academy Awards? Turns out it's a big ol' sex and war epic, with a dash of Lost's Naveen Andrews paving the way for "The Hurt Locker". Even James Ivory's "The Remains of the Day" sees Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson stifling their burning desire.

John Mackenzie and Barrie Keeffe brought Bob Hoskins' Harry Shand into the world and created the modern British gangster film. George Harrison bailed out Bruce Robinson's "Withnail and I" so that Richard E. Grant could become an inspiration for British slacker characters for decades.

Ken Loach set the bar quite high with his story of a boy and his falcon (kestrel) in "Kes", and Franc Roddam brought the Who's "Quadrophenia" to the big screen, busting out an epic gang fight featuring hundreds of extras in his first movie!

Tony Richardson's "Tom Jones" wowed audiences in the '60s with its free spirit and nods towards counter culture, all the way to a Best Picture Oscar. But it falls apart under modern scrutiny. Meanwhile, "Peeping Tom" spelled disaster for its director Michael Powell, despite being a truly interesting and transgressive movie. Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler, with guest Jeff Richardson. #classicmovies #alfredhitchcock #psycho

Before his trilogy of epics, David Lean made us laugh by turning Charles Laughton into a buffoon in "Hobson's Choice." Meanwhile, Charles Crichton cracked us up with Alec Guinness in Ealing Studios' "The Lavender Hill Mob." Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler, with guest James Sanford. #classicmovies #britishcomedy

Carol Reed and Orson Welles had you questioning your morality with "The Third Man," while Ealing Studios brought in Robert Hamer to direct Alec Guinness giving 8 different performances in "Kind Hearts and Coronets."Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler, with guest Richard Smith. #classicmovies #britishfilm

Our UK miniseries "You Sound Like You're From London" continues with a couple of movies that look to a future that contained within it an inevitable war. "Things to Come," written by H.G. Wells, imagines a world in which the war went on for decades, and could only be stopped by peace gas. In "Goodbye, Mr. Chips," Sam Wood shows us a more personal look at a life effected by war, and how it disrupts the connections we make.
