Subject: asking for help
Dear all
I wonder whether the cinephiles amongst might be able to help me.
I will be teaching a module about London as a global city and would
like to use extract from films in class. I have a tiny list that I
wish to expand on considerably.
Would you be able to nominate films/British movies/documentaries that
address issues such as gentrification, immigration, multiculturalism,
London as heart the empire, post-modern London, etc etc.
Very grateful for any help I can get on this, feel free to use my
e-mail for your kind replies ([log in to unmask]
Cheers
Yara
