6. TiE Box Office Success
O This is England ‘86 made $7,847,165 as
of 9/13/09, So there has been a lot of time
since, however, it made an entire third of
its money in England, the rest was
distributed over a series of countries such
as France and Sweden, sowing me that
the movie either wasn’t a huge success
abroad or it simply didn’t have enough
distribution access in other countries
7. Is there a correlation?
O In a lot of the Warp Films, they have only
been successful mainly in the UK, mainly
because there movies highlight scenarios
that happened and only affected Britain or
the British Isles, therefor most other
countries weren’t at all interested. Films
such as The Midnight Beast, Dead Mans
Shoes and Donkey Punch.
