Four Weddings and a Funeral

A bright example for pure British cinema awesomeness (at least for a foreigner like me) is definitely 'Four Weddings and a Funeral'. It basically depicts a period of personal growth in the life of the protagonist - Charles. The true British theme in the film is the unique English atmosphere in which the character manages to achieve his own personal growth. It stands for a typical, down-to-earth atmosphere which is much more likely to fall into either a cold and meaningless extreme or a particularly witty and humorous extreme than to stay balanced. The specific sense of humor depicted in the film is also another trait that makes the film British. While the American sense of humor had become an international standard throughout the years and people from all over the world could easily understand mainly due to the fact that the American lifestyle and culture are being taken into the lives of people from all across the world though the media, the British sense of humor remains specific and is easy to be understood mainly by the British people (even though it is much more rewarding that way when the foreigners are getting used to it) and this is also a pure British trait of this film.
