And do you think we have different kinds of humour,You make better more lavish films then us, but; lacking in realist

UK films are often smarter and deeper in meaning and character that many of our films. I think it’s a hard comparison because we produce so man films and they cover the full spectrum of from the devine to the rediculous.

Personally, I enjoy English humor and drama and find myself getting pulled into the plots. But it’s hard to dismiss movies like Gladiator and Hamlet as being shallow and crass also.

I’d say we are both pretty darned good at it, Agreed?

BTW, bit of trivia. Do you know why the film industry developed in Hollywood? Because of the light quality. Initially, land in Hollywood was considered ‘junk land’ and small chuncks of it were given away in cereal boxes. Weird how things work out.
