Written from an intercultural perspective and drawing on extensive archival research, Hollywood and the Invention of England examines the surprising affinity for British history in Hollywood cinema and asks what this can tell us about both British and American culture in general. Beginning with an overview of the social and cultural dimensions of the so-called 'special relationship', Stubbs proceeds to chronologically chart the major filmmaking cycles which characterise Hollywood's engagement with the British past from the 1930s to the present. In addition, each chapter features an extended case study examining a key production from each filmmaking cycle in greater detail.
