The British Film collection was launched by Network Distributing in April 2013 as part of a five-year plan to release over 450 vintage British films through a deal with Studiocanal, one of Europeโ€™s leading distribution and production companies. Many of the films have never been available to own and will benefit from new transfers, affirming Network Distributingโ€™s commitment to classic British cinema.
