The History Usherette's popular blog looks at what British Cinema can tell us about our social history. This is a summary of how trends in cinema from the 1930s to the 1970s show us what was happening to the British people, and what they wanted to see on screen. It is a starting point for the student of 20th Century British Social History who would like to use cinema as a resource - or a reminder of the saturday afternoon matinee for those of a certain age... The chapters are separated out as follows: 1. 1930s - the early talkies and the music hall hangover 2. Wartime - propaganda and escapism 3. Post war- the heyday of our films and screen stars 4. Permissive society - the rise of the 'kitchen sink drama' 5. Television on film- the last desperate gasp Each of the first four chapters is followed by a spotlight feature on a particular aspect of that period. A bibliography and a calendar of births, deaths and releases finishes the book off, while pencil portraits of the stars enhance the text

British films of the 1960s are undervalued. Their search for realism has often been dismissed as drabness and their more frivolous efforts can now appear just empty-headed. Robert Murphy's Sixties British Cinema is the first study to challenge this view. He shows that the realist tradition of the late 50s and early 60s was anything but dreary and depressing, and gave birth to a clutch of films remarkable for their confidence and vitality: Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, A Kind of Loving, and A Taste of Honey are only the better known titles. Sixties British Cinema revalues key genres of the period - horror, crime and comedy - and takes a fresh look at the 'swinging London' films, finding disturbing undertones that reflect the cultural changes of the decade. Now that our cinematic past is constantly recycled on television, Murphy's informative, engaging and perceptive review of these films and their cultural and industrial context offers an invaluable guide to this neglected era of British cinema.
