- British Film Institute: custodians
of the largest film archive in the world, and a world leader
in film restoration and preservation. The BFI runs the internationally
renowned National Film Theatre and the London Film Festival, the bfi IMAX cinema, and the world's
largest film library and educational resource. The bfi releases
films in cinema and on video and DVD, publishes books and runs

- Film London: film development
in the UK capital.
- Amazon.com: on-line shop for books, DVDs, VHS
tapes and soundtracks, etc. Amazingly comprehensive, and there
are dealers who often have hard-to-find and deleted items.
- Amazon.co.uk: Amazon's UK site. Not as comprehensive
as the US site.
- Play247:
suppliers of DVD. If you just can't wait... Fast delivery in
the UK of Region 1 discs.
- Internet Movie Database: incredibly useful on-line
encyclopaedia of film and television. Cast and technical info
is excellent, but the location entries tend to be a bit erratic,
ranging from the vague ('London, UK') to the dubious (they rely
largely on reader submissions, which are not always accurate).
- ReelStreets: Locations used in films made in Great
Britain 1920s to 1980s
- Ain't It Cool News: Harry Knowles's legendary spot
for news, leaks, previews, rumours and everything you could
want to know. You'll hear it here first.
- Four Word Film Review: Just plain fun. A great
way to waste those precious hours you were meant to be
doing something useful. Sum up your favourite (or your
least fave) film in four succinct words: 'Midgets attempt
jewellery destruction' (Lord
of the Rings). Be inventive. Be irreverent.
