	Movies - Made in Britain

Made in Britain is a "state-of-the-nation" style short film (70 minutes) directed by Alan Clarke and written by David Leland. It was originally broadcast on ITV as part of a series of films called "Tales out of School". As with many Alan Clarke films the director attempts to depict English working-class life realisticially withouth moralizing or complex plots. The films use of strong language, violence, racist idiology and anti-establishment feeling makes it a thought-provoking, powerful drama. Cinematographer Chris Menges was responsible for the atmosphere.

Trivia

The opening music is "UK82" by Scottish punk band The Exploited.

Dialogue from the film was sampled heavily on Skinnyman's 2004 album Council Estate of Mind.
