Tony Richardson's A Taste of Honey (1961) is a multi-award-winning
landmark film in British cinema history and one of the few key
films of the British New Wave to have be written by a woman
(Shelagh Delaney, adapting her own stage play). Melanie Williams'
study explores the many ways in which A Taste of Honey was
innovative. It was one of the first films to be made almost
entirely on location, its Salford, Manchester and Blackpool
exteriors and interiors perfectly curated by production designer
Ralph Brinton. It was shot by Walter Lassally in a style liberated
from previous orthodoxies about good cinematography and was
poetically assembled by visionary editor Anthony Gibbs. The film
also launched a wholly new kind of female star in Rita Tushingham,
and introducing new faces to British cinema, including Murray
Melvin, Paul Danquah, and Robert Stephens. Perhaps most
innovatively of all, it boldly but un-sensationally explored class,
place, gender, age, ethnicity, sexuality, maternity, and their
various intersections at this key moment in post-war British
history. Teenage playwright Delaney's strikingly original dramatic
vision was sympathetically rendered on screen by Tony Richardson,
in perhaps the finest and most fully realised of all his films, and
certainly among the finest achievements of the British New Wave he
helped to instigate.
'A rule of mine is this', said William Goldman in 1983, 'there are
always three hot directors and one of them is always David Lean.'
One of the best known and most admired of British film makers,
David Lean had a directorial career that spanned five decades and
encompassed everything from the intimate black-and-white romance of
Brief Encounter (1945) to the spectacular Technicolor epic of
Lawrence of Arabia (1962). This book offers comprehensive coverage
of every feature film directed by Lean, yielding new insights on
the established classics of his career as well as its lesser-known
treasures. Its analysis prioritises questions of gender and
emphasises the often-overlooked but highly significant recurrence
of female-centred narratives throughout Lean's career. Drawing
extensively on archival historical materials while also presenting
nuanced close readings of individual films, David Lean offers a
fascinating and original account of the work of a remarkable
British film maker. -- .

British Women 's Cinema examines the place of female-centred
films throughout British film history, from silent melodrama and
1940s costume dramas right up to the contemporary British chick
flick .
Utilising literature as a serious source of challenges to
questions in philosophy and law, this book provides a fresh
perspective not only upon the inculcation of the legal subject, but
also upon the relationship between modernism, postmodernism and how
such concepts might evolve in the construction of community ethics.
The creation and role of the legal subject is just one aspect of
jurisprudential enquiry now attracting much attention.
How do moral values act upon the subject? How do moral 'systems'
impinge upon the subject - jurist and judged - throughout the 20th
century, when religious values are called into question, when
'existential' doubt prevails? To what extent do issues of gender
and identity inform these questions?
Many sources can provide insights into these issues: this book
intends to concentrate upon fiction as just such a resource.
However it is not just another law and literature compilation.
Spanning the last century, each chapter will attempt to fulfil four
objectives: to identify key texts in relation to a given period; to
look for linked legal and philosophical developments from that
period; to establish fresh links from these sources regarding
concrete doctrinal, or practical legal questions, and finally draw
a more general inference about the legal subject and the frequently
less evident feminine citizen-subject.
Central to this approach will be the consideration of
contemporary case law and legal materials as social documents of
the relationship between law and the wider community.

This book demonstrates that law can be newly interrogated when
examined through the lens of literature. The book creates simple
pathways which energise and illustrate the links between legal
theory and legal science and doctrine through the wider visions of
history, literature and culture. This broadening approach is
integral to understanding law in the context of wider debates and
media in the community. The book provides a collection of essays,
with additional commentary which reflects upon very recent
scholarship and debate on a range of ethico-legal topics; it also
illustrates how conventional legal matters may be rendered lively
and palatable, as an adjunct to approaching doctrine and cases
'cold' in the conventional textbook manner. The chapters range from
examination of current thought on cohabitation and marriage laws
(via Jude the Obscure), 19th century medico-legal cases relevant to
current narratives of insanity in women and the nature and status
of expert evidence generally; assisted suicide and autonomy (via a
poem by Jon Stallworthy) to an essay on the nature of race and
ethnicity (via a poem by R S Thomas), a discussion of obscenity and
moral philosophy (via an essay on Crash by J G Ballard and the
philosophy of Bernard Williams) and a history of ideas discussion
of positivism, natural law and political crisis, war and terrorism
through legal and political theory texts and a poem by Auden. The
materials refer to case law where appropriate.

This collection of exciting new research on British cinema of the
1960s reconsiders and reframes the film culture that emerged from
that tumultuous decade. Challenging assumptions around Sixties
stardom, the book focuses on creative collaboration and the
contribution of production personnel beyond the director, and
discusses how cultural change is reflected in both film style and
cinematic themes. With perspectives and insights from established
scholars and new critical voices, Sixties British Cinema
Reconsidered draws on under-explored archival resources to explore
four key research areas: stars and stardom; creative collaborations
in filmmaking; developments in genre and film style; and how the
cinema of the period both responded and contributed to social and
cultural transformation in the 1960s.
Over half a century on, the 1960s continue to generate strong
intellectual and emotional responses - both positive and negative -
and this is no less true in the arena of film. Making substantial
use of new and underexplored archive resources that provide a
wealth of information and insight on the period in question, this
book offers a fresh perspective on the major resurgence of
creativity and international appeal experienced by British cinema
in that dramatic decade. Transformation and Tradition in 1960s
British Cinema is the first scholarly volume on this period of
British cinema for more than twenty-five years. It provides a major
reconsideration of the period by focusing on the central tensions
and contradiction between novelty/revolution and
continuity/tradition during what remains a highly contentious
period of cultural production and consumption.
