| | Harry Potter is good for the UK film industry
Though there has been a world-wide decline at the box office over the past couple of years, the 'Mirror' is reporting that British films have actually doubled their world box office takings and it has a lot to do with the popularity of the Harry Potter films. Quote:
The Top 10 UK films last year took £1,385million, compared with £622million in 2003 - and despite a world box office slump.
Quote:
Culture Secretary Ms Jowell, in Cannes to meet film industry figures, said: "It's testament to our dynamic and innovative film industry that the UK had such a strong showing."
Quote:
Top 10 films: 1 Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire' 2 Charlie And The Chocolate Factory' 3 Batman Begins' 4 Kingdom Of Heaven' 5 Wallace And Gromit: The Curse Of The Were-Rabbit' 6 Sahara' 7 The Corpse Bride' 8 The Phantom Of The Opera' 9 The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy' 10 The Brothers Grimm.

Coming from Britain it's good news that our film industry is getting somewhere at last, we used to make great films but now there is too much red tape. Lets hope that this is a sign of things to come |
