Some resources for intro task

Do make full use of the British Cinema book (copies in library but also one in F6, alongside books such as that on Social Realism) and the Media/Film Guardian sites.

Don't just use the company/movement name as a search term; try adding words such as britishness or representation or business/economics...

Some further suggestions:
