Le cinéma national britannique a produit un palmarès exceptionnel de cinéastes innovants, créatifs et internationalement reconnus, parmi lesquels Alfred Hitchcock, Michael Powell et David Lean. Cette tradition se poursuit aujourd'hui avec le travail de réalisateurs aussi divers que Neil Jordan, Stephen Frears, Mike Leigh et Ken Loach. Ce volume concis et faisant autorité analyse de manière critique le travail d'une centaine de réalisateurs britanniques, des innovateurs de la période silencieuse aux auteurs contemporains.
Une introduction place les entrées individuelles dans leur contexte et examine le rôle et le statut du réalisateur au sein de la production cinématographique britannique. Équilibrant rigueur académique et accessibilité, les réalisateurs britanniques constituent une source de référence indispensable pour les étudiants en cinéma de tous les niveaux, ainsi que pour les amateurs de cinéma en général.
Les principales caractéristiques incluent une liste complète des longs métrages britanniques de chaque réalisateur, un aperçu complet de la carrière qui comprend des informations biographiques et une évaluation de la position critique actuelle du réalisateur, et des suggestions de lecture supplémentaires sur chaque cinéaste.
