I also found 3 Doctor films starring Dirk Bogarde to watch instantly too.

Tarkak9

... I guess monty python films are too obvious....

The Killing Fields
A Clockwork Orange
Erik the Viking
King's Speech (future classic)
The Eagle Has Landed
Force 10...
Fahrenheit 451
Shirly Valentine
Goodbye Mr Chips
Dr Zhivago
The Crying Game
Withnail & I
Human Traffic

_Clueless$y$t€m_

Not necessarily old movies but still worth a look in my humble opinion-
This is England
Dead Man's Shoes
Human Traffic
Control (biopic of Ian Curtis)
24hour Party People

Oy! I can't believe no one has mentioned:

Johnny English
Johnny English: Reborn
Mr. Bean

!!!!

Uncle Ebenezer

Probably because, far from being classics of the Brit movie genre, they're total crap.

Sally Redux

and they're new crap.

jemima55

Yes, but they`re OUR crap!

Xebedee

Oh, old dusty movies.....

A night to remember
The dambusters (here....doggy, doggy)
The 4 feathers
Biggles flies undone

ottotheboar

Thanks to whoever mentioned Withnail and I. I had forgotten about that one

Uncle Ebenezer

If you liked that, you'd probably like "How to Get Ahead in Advertising". Now that is an off-the-wall film.

ottotheboar

Thanks I love off-the-wall I am very big in the off-the-wall low budget zombie genre
