    Did you thought English = England's? I was talking about language english.

    Something from England is ENGLISH! England's is that which Belongs to England. As in He is an English Man and England's Green and Pleasant Land. To state they are English Films is incorrect, they may be described as English-Language Films, or American Films, predominately abused by the constant bastardization that the Hollywood Producers do to both the Beautiful English Language and our history. (According to Hollywood, Sir Winston Eisenhower parachuted into a German Submarine in 1938 and nicked all the secrets etc blah blah blah... U571, what a piece in inaccurate crap. It was a British victory two years before the film was set, but no, that won't do will it? /rant

      I have a few english movies and not being an english movie fan has left me confused. This is what I have:

      I Want Candy
      citizen kane
      Diary Of The Dead
      Death At A Funeral
      Cloverfield
      Cleaner
      Charlie Wilson's War
      A Requeim for a Dream
      Chaos

      Which one should I watch?

      Citizen Kane is the best film there, without question, but the acting style may be difficult for a modern audience. If you like that film then I would suggest 'Casablanca' as a follow up (I know it's not on your list). If you don't watch Casablanca you will certainly regret it, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

        Not Cloverfield. It's rubbish. Citizen Kane, A Requiem for a Dream and Charlie Wilson's War - all excellent choices.

        I quite liked Cloverfield. But no one else does, strange.

            Personally I hate shakeycam ... I think it's a gimick and this was a whole film based around that.

                                      It's English Language, but not an English Film.

                                        I have a few english movies and not being an english movie fan has left me confused. This is what I have:

                                        I Want Candy
                                        citizen kane
                                        Diary Of The Dead
                                        Death At A Funeral
                                        Cloverfield
                                        Cleaner
                                        Charlie Wilson's War
                                        A Requeim for a Dream
                                        Chaos

                                        Which one should I watch?

                                        C isn't that hard: void (*(*f[])())() defines f as an array of unspecified size, of pointers to functions that return pointers to functions that return void "Always program as if the person who will be maintaining your program is a violent psychopath that knows where you live." - Martin Golding
