Just as the World Englishes committee embraces diverse forms of English, we also embrace the diversity of global cinema. Every month, we will be sharing a few of our film recommendations in our new World Cinema Spotlight program, founded by committee member and film scholar Anu Thapa. In 2019, a number of Brittain Fellows came together to share a list of their favorite international films, which represented an early iteration of the work we are attempting to do with the World Cinema Spotlights. If you have a film recommendation you’d like to share, please send us an email at gtworldenglishescommittee@gmail.com, or hit us up on social media.
