UK TALENT and AWARDS Image: Amy Courtesy of Altitude Film Distribution UK TALENT and AWARDS BFI RESEARCH AND STATISTICS STATISTICS PUBLISHED JUNE 2016 UK TALENT AND AWARDS Image: Amy courtesy of Altitude Film Distribution UK TALENT AND AWARDS UK actors, directors and writers consistently win acclaim at the global box office and international awards ceremonies. In 2015, UK talent and story material continued to reach enthusiastic audiences and showcase our culture and identity to the world. FACTS IN FOCUS Of the top 200 global box office successes of 2001-2015, 36 films are based on stories and characters created by UK writers. Together they have earned $30 billion (£20 billion) at the worldwide box office. Five of the top 20 global box office successes of the last 15 years are based on novels by UK writers. British acting talent has played lead or supporting roles in 81% of live action titles in the top 200 films of the last 15 years. UK directors were behind 31 of the 200 highest earning films of the last 15 years with Harry Potter director, David Yates, topping the box office league. UK films and talent won 26 major film awards in 2015/16, including six Oscars® and 11 BAFTAs. UK TALENT AND AWARDS UK TALENT UK STORY MATERIAL The global box office performance of UK films and foreign productions which draw on UK source material is a good indicator of the international impact and exposure of British culture. Of the top 200 grossing films released worldwide between 2001 and 2015, 48 are UK qualifying films, and UK-originated story material provided the inspiration for 36 films, a feat bettered only by US story material. Collectively these 36 films have earned $30 billion (£19.6 billion at the 2015 average exchange rate) at the global box office. Novels by British writers have provided the source material for five of the top 20 grossing films worldwide since 2001 (Table 1). Also appearing in the top 20 is The Dark Knight Rises which features the character Batman created by American Bob Kane, but the story for this film was written by British writer/director Christopher Nolan.

If animated titles are removed (44 titles), then British acting talent has played lead or supporting roles in 81% of the top live action films of the last 15 years. The global prominence of UK acting talent is reflected in Figure 2, which shows the top 12 British actors based on appearances in the top 200 films and ranked by total box office gross. The Harry Potter films feature heavily in this chart. At the top of the list is the late Alan Rickman thanks to appearances in nine of the top 200 films including the Harry Potter series and Alice in Wonderland. In second place is Ian McKellen who has appeared in 11 of the top 200 films, including all three Lord of the Rings films, The Hobbit trilogy and the three X-Men films that feature in the top 200. Third in the list is Andy Serkis, whose ground- breaking motion capture performances have contributed to the Lord of the Rings, Planet of the Apes and the Hobbit films as well as King Kong and 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Orlando Bloom is next thanks to appearances in five Tolkien adaptations plus three Pirates of the Caribbean films and is followed by the three regular young stars of the Harry Potter franchise – Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. The only other female actor to feature in the list is Helena Bonham Carter who has appeared in nine of the top 200 films, including four Harry Potter films, The King’s Speech and Les Misérables.

    OPENING NIGHT THE MAN WHO KNEW INFINITY FRIDAY 11 MARCH 7PM Directed by Matthew Brown | UK | In English and Tamil with English subtitles | 108 mins | PG SELECTED: TORONTO & DUBAI FILM FESTIVAL 2015 Based on the inspirational biography of a genuine mathematical genius in the early twentieth century, The Man Who Knew Infinity tells the life story of Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel, Slumdog Millionaire). Image: Mustang From an underprivileged upbringing in Madras, India, Ramanujan earns admittance to Cambridge University during WWI, where he becomes a pioneer in mathematical theories. Academy Award-winner Jeremy Irons delivers a terrific performance as Cambridge University Professor G.H. Hardy, who is inspired and captivated by the mathematician’s ground-breaking theories. Their friendship transcends race and culture through mutual respect and understanding, and Ramanujan’s visionary theories shine through the ignorance and prejudice of those around him.

    International Casting Directors Network Index 01 Welcome 02 About the ICDN 04 Index of Profiles 06 Profiles of Casting Directors 76 About European Film Promotion 78 Imprint 79 ICDN Membership Application form Gut instinct and hours of research “A great film can feel a lot like a fantastic dinner party. Actors mingle and clash in the best possible lighting, and conversation is fraught with wit and emotion. The director usually gets the bulk of the credit. But before he or she can play the consummate host, someone must carefully select the right guests, send out the invites, and keep track of the RSVPs”. ‘OSCARS: The Role Of Casting Director’ by Monica Corcoran Harel, The Deadline Team, December 6, 2012 Playing one of the key roles in creating that successful “dinner” is the Casting Director, but someone who is often over-looked in the recognition department. Everyone sees the actor at work, but very few people see the hours of research, the intrinsic skills, the gut instinct that the Casting Director puts into finding just the right person for just the right role. It’s a mix of routine and inspiration which brings the characters we come to love, and sometimes to hate, to the big screen. The Casting Director’s delicate work as liaison between director, actors, their agent/manager and the studio/network figures prominently in decisions which can make or break a project. It’s a job that can't garner an Oscar, but its mighty importance is always felt behind the scenes. In July 2013, the Academy of Motion Pictures of Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) created a new branch for Casting Directors, and we are thrilled that a number of members of the International Casting Directors Network are amongst the first Casting Directors invited into the Academy.

  • CORE 301: Modes of Inquiry Professor William Handley Sex, Church, and State This Course Will Explore How and Why
    CORE 301: Modes of Inquiry Professor William Handley Sex, Church, and State This course will explore how and why the “natural” and the “national” come together in culture, religion, and law to regulate sex and define gender, often through heterosexual marriage. This conjoining of nature and nation through various cultural and religious assumptions has often complicated the meanings of religion and sex, and of what counts as “good” forms of either. By exploring and historicizing instances of traditional and non-traditional marital forms – heterosexual monogamy, polygamy, and gay marriage – we will at the same time explore the contingent meanings of such terms as “religion”, “nation,” “law,” and the “natural.” One of the central questions of the course is: why has marriage been considered “the cornerstone of civilization” and why have other forms as vastly different as same-sex and polygamous marriage been deemed a potentially fatal threat to civilization itself? In exploring this question, we will examine the relationships among private property, sexuality, and religion – and how they are manifest in everything from clothing to war-making. As we read and view across genres – court decisions, theory, novels, films, among them – one of the central aims of the course will be to explore how different kinds of discourse and forms of representation reveal and conceal the cultural relationships between private and public, between sexuality and law, and between marriage and nation, relationships that these discourses and representations also serve to construct, reinforce, or remake.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.
