  • Variety International Film Guide 1999
    Variety International Film Guide 1999 By Peter Cowie (ed.) London: Faber and Faber, 1998, ISBN 0-571-19411-7. 416 pp + illustration. £14.99 A review by Robert McMinn, University of Nottingham, UK This is Variety's annual snapshot of the state of the world-wide film industry, coupled with lists of useful addresses and references for national film archives, festivals, and the like. Its survey does its best to be as international as possible, with sections dedicated to 71 national industries, from Algeria to Zimbabwe. Each section is written by someone with local knowledge and local concerns, though inevitably a recurring theme is how the national industry suffers in comparison to the runaway success of the multiplex American film. So, in the United Kingdom the complaint (by Philip Kemp) is that successful films like The Full Monty and Bean are made with American money, while in Australia, we learn, local product doesn't get distribution outside large urban centres. One only needs to turn to the "World Box-Office Survey" section to see the evidence. If you could go back a couple of years and grab a small percentage point of just one film, it would be Men in Black, which features in the top ten films of almost every country listed, a phenomenal international success. The most successful British product, on this evidence, is not The Full Monty but Bean, showing that the almost-silent slapstick face-pulling comedy of Rowan Atkinson goes down well in Finland, Croatia, and Serbia alike. It's astonishing to see that, with over 1 million admissions, Bean was by far the most popular film in the Netherlands in 1997, with the all-conquering Men in Black beaten into fourth place.
