About
Using the history of the British holiday as a framework, Matthew Kerry offers a refreshing insight into a previously neglected area of popular British cinema ₆ the holiday film. Looking at key films from the silent period to the recent past, Kerry€considers how these representations may reinforce feelings of national identity. The book includes production histories and textual analyses of films such as A Seaside Girl (1907), Holiday Camp (1947), Summer Holiday (1963), and Bhaji on the Beach (1993), and provides an exploration of their social function.
