Abstract
Abstract At the turn of the century, British film-makers were among the most enterprising in the world. By the First World War, this initiative had been lost to the American film industry and, ever since, British screens have been dominated by Hollywood films. Various measures have been adopted by British film-makers, the film industry, the state, and various self-appointed guardians of the film culture in an effort to establish and maintain a national cinema in the face of this competition. In the pages that follow, I will be exploring some of the more pervasive cultural and economic forms that this construction of a national cinema has taken.
