List of British films of 2013

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2013 saw the death of Peter O'Toole.

The British film industry produced over five hundred feature films in 2013. This article fully lists all non-pornographic films, including short films, that had a release date in that year and which were at least partly made by the United Kingdom. It does not include films first released in previous years that had release dates in 2013.

Also included is an overview of the major events in British film, including film festivals and awards ceremonies, as well as lists of those films that were particularly well received, both critically and financially. The year was particularly notable for a number of low budget and independent horror films, such as In Fear, Devil's Pass, Dementamania and Stalled.

Listed here are the British winners and nominees at the five most prestigious film award ceremonies in the English-speaking world: the Academy Awards, British Academy Film Awards, Critics' Choice Awards, Golden Globe Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards, that were held during 2013, celebrating the best films of 2012. The British nominations were led by Skyfall, Life of Pi, Les Misérables and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, the first three of which went on to receive large numbers of technical awards. In terms of main awards categories, Daniel Day-Lewis won many for the American film Lincoln and the Americans Ang Lee and Anne Hathaway won for Life of Pi and Les Misérables respectively. They did, however, notably lose out to Argo and Django Unchained (both from the United States).
