  • "Costume dramas such as 'Chariots of Fire', 'A Room with a View', 'Sense and Sensibility', and 'Shakespeare in Love' were vital to the success of British cinema in the 1980s and 1990s. This book offers the first book-length study of these films."
  • "Costume drama in British cinema became a significant trend in the 1980s and 1990s. Films such as Chariots of Fire, A Room with a View, Howards End, Sense and Sensibility, Elizabeth, and Shakespeare in Love experienced great popularity during this period. This book examines these important films, and the debate about their politics and their meanings, and about their relationship to the heritage industry. It maps the extent of the production trend, and looks in detail at the commercial context in which the films were funded, marketed and exhibited, in both the UK and the USA. There are also extensive case studies of two key films, Howards End and Elizabeth."
