Screenshot looks at memorable movie depictions of the British holidaying abroad.
1. The Inbetweeners Movie
As film historian Professor Steve Chibnall tells Mark:"Lucy is on a voyage of discovery which involves an unbuttoning of buttoned-up British sensibility." The film illustrates how Brits feel able to shed their 'Britishness', and their class pretentions, in foreign climes, in Lucy's case finding romance with Julian Sands' dashing George.Alfred Hitchcock's glorious murder-mystery is set mainly on a train travelling through continental Europe and populated by Brits.
Once they've acclimatised to the location these Brits lose their inhibitions, but unlike the perpetually scandalized Edwardians of Room With a View, they use the distance from home as an excuse to act with abandon.Another person yearning to shed their Britishness is the titular character in Willy Russell's beloved 1989 film. As Steve Chibnall explains:"It's a comedy, but it's also got a serious core about the condition of women in the 1980s.
Samantha Morton, who played Morvern, identified intensely with the role."There was a wavelength I was able to connect to very, very quickly," she tells Ellen. It's a film that means a huge amount to her, not least as it cemented a friendship with Lynne Ramsay:"To celebrate the genius that is Lynne is important to me."
