Hidden Gems of British Films
Scorsese 50 British fave films - via Edgar Wright
https://nofilmschool.com/edgar-wright-and-quentin-tarantino-quarantine-film-club Scorsese sent Wright a recommendation list of nearly 50 British films that Scorsese considers his personal favorites. In the five months Wright spent in lockdown before resuming production on Last Night in Soho and prior to receiving the list from Scorsese, he started watching films and then searching for Scorsese’s commentary on those films via essays online or YouTube. Unfortunately, there weren’t enough commentary videos or essays to please Wright’s appetite, which led him to email Scorsese, thanking him for being his quarantine film professor and asking what some of his favorite British films were. Check out Scorsese’s list below, courtesy of Wright. Head over to Empire magazine’s website to listen to Wright and Tarantino’s three-hour discussion in its entirety.
