The List Magazine's Best Scottish Films
Favs/dislikes: 10:0. List published in 2004. These films (Bill Douglas trilogy counting as one) were put forward for the public to vote on and a list of the five films with the most votes was published. The rest of the list is unranked. "We've given ourselves a broad definition of what makes a film 'Scottish'. A film made in Scotland by Scots, obviously. But also a film made in Scotland by a foreigner. Dane Lars von Trier's Breaking the Waves fits into this category. Our definition is even broad enough to include Braveheart (Australian star and director, American money, even Ireland doubling as Stirling! But a blockbuster about a Scottish folk hero and a film that employed nearly every Scottish actor-except Billy Connolly, apparently). Getting the picture?" -

Time Out's The 100 Best British Films
Favs/dislikes: 210:2. Other than location and accent, what signatures mark British cinema? Honestly, it’s hard to peg, if only because the UK movies industry hardly seems limited in the stories it tells and the cinematic experiences it puts onscreen. Want a sweeping, heart-swelling epic? Explore the films of David Lean or Powell and Pressburger. Prefer a smaller scale, more intimate drama? Try Joanna Hogg or Shane Meadows. Thrillers? Romantic period pieces? Sci-fi? Drug movies? You can find them, all with a specific, if sometimes intangible, English slant. To put together this list of the best British movies of all-time, we polled over 150 actors, directors, writers, producers, critics and industry heavyweights, from the likes of Wes Anderson, Mike Leigh, Ken Loach, Sam Mendes and Terence Davies, David Morrissey, Sally Hawkins and Thandie Newton. The results are as diverse as the country itself. Here are the 100 greatest British films ever made. Written by Dave Calhoun, Tom Huddleston, David Jenkins, Derek Adams, Geoff Andrew, Adam Lee Davies, Paul Fairclough, Wally Hammond, Alim Kheraj, Matthew Singer & Phil de Semlyen Last Updated: April 14, 2022 [url=https://www.timeout.com/london/film/100-best-british-films]Source[/url] -

Time Out's The 100 Best Hong Kong Movies
Favs/dislikes: 3:0. From Bruce Lee kung-fu flicks to Wong Kar-wai’s tales of romance Written by Time Out Hong Kong Saturday 12 March 2022 Hong Kong was once the Hollywood of the East. At its peak, around the early 90s, the local movie industry was the first in the world – in terms of per capita production and the second-largest exporter of films – second only to the US. The influence of Hong Kong cinema can be seen far and wide. Bruce Lee remains a global icon and his martial arts movies are classics. The groundbreaking action of The Matrix would never have come about if not for John Woo films and the action choreography of Yuen Woo-ping. Quentin Tarantino ripped off Ringo Lam’s City on Fire for his debut, 1992’s Reservoir Dogs. Moonlight owes much to the style of Wong Kar-wai films and the auteur was an influence acknowledged by Sofia Coppola when she collected the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for Lost in Translation. So with such a massive cultural legacy, what are the best Hong Kong movies of all time? We present to you this definitive ranking of the best films made in Hong Kong dating as far back as the 1930s. #19 (A Chinese Odyssey) & #71 (The Blue and the Black) both have two films in each entry. -
