The British film industry has had a turbulent history, from its cottage industry origins in the 1890s to its 'golden age' in the 1940s, when giants like Alexander Korda, Michael Balcon and J. Arthur Rank ruled over a thriving business, through Hollywood investment in the 1960s, collapse in the 1970s and a succession of rises and falls from the 1980s to the present.
This section includes biographical entries on film studios from the early silent era to the present day, as well as on industry bodies, trade unions, workshops and collectives.
