The final list reveals the public's 40 favourite British films ranging from old classics such as Great Expectations, Oliver Twist and The 39 Steps to more recent British comedies such as Love Actually (out on DVD March 26 and available to pre-order now with £10 off at Amazon.co.uk), Four Weddings and a Funeral and The Full Monty.Featured Films The final list reflects the huge diversity of British films with the top 20 featuring everything from gritty realism to surreal comedy; from majestic epics to spy films; and from classic war stories to classic Shakespeare. This survey demonstrates the eclectic nature of British films and here at Amazon.co.uk we aim to offer the biggest selection of these genre-spanning movies comments Mark Walker, DVD Product Manager at Amazon.co.uk.

In its second edition in 2017, the EUFA connected twenty European universities in a common teaching project in which five nominated films were analysed and discussed in courses of the respective universities. Subsequently, one student representative per country joined the three-day student jury deliberation in Hamburg and voted for the final EUFA winner. In 2016, Ken Loach’s I, Daniel Blake (2016) won the inaugural EUFA; in 2017, Guðmundur Arnar Guðmundsson’s Heartstone (Hjartasteinn, 2016) was awarded the prize.
