Apparently in Scotland, they watch (French) Canadian films
We're a little late on this (a whole three weeks), but this past March a major international conference took place at the University of Glasgow, Scotland to "examine the texts and contexts associated with this current [good Quebecer cinema] phenomenon, but also to establish a balance-sheet of the forty or fifty years of Quebec cinema's existence as such. The conference will also be concerned to look at Quebec cinema in its international context, and contributions are actively sought on its Atlantic, including Scottish, dimensions."
Wow. Who knew?
Perhaps one day they'll look at the bastard child English cinema. I bet them Scots have never seen Karla. That film is just dying for a dissertation paper written about it.
