Description de l'ouvrage :
Costume dramas such as Chariots of Fire, A Room with a View, Sense and Sensibility, and Shakespeare in Love were vital to the success of British cinema in the 1980s and 1990s. This is the first book-length study of these important films, and the debate about their politics and their meanings, and about their relationship to the heritage industry. It maps the extent of the production trend, and looks in detail at the commercial context in which the films were funded, marketed and exhibited, in both the UK and the USA. There are also extensive case studies of two key films, Howard's End and Elizabeth.

Revue de Presse :
"[Higson] provides a flexible definition of 'heritage film,' working through with exemplary clarity the various readings that such films provoke.... Shows how complicated, interesting, and critically resilient these films can be. Highly recommended."--Choice
