What are the best movies on British history?
These are movies that I may be able to recommend to university students taking a course on British culture as an elective subject.
I understand that movies such as Braveheart and maybe The Patriot are very inaccurate, but I am looking for movies of two particular kinds:
Those about British history in general (including the British Empire), and perhaps biopics of the kings and queens.
Here are a few possibilities:
Elizabeth (Gwyneth Paltrow)
Madness of King George
The King's Speech
Also,
The Man Who Would be King (fiction, yes, but enjoyable)
Wind That Shakes the Barley (for Ireland)
Do you recommend any others, or would you warn off any of my choices so far?
