Topic ­ London Tallinn English College Tallinn 2007  1. Introduction London is the capital city of the United Kingdom and the largest urban area in England. The ancient City of London, to which the name originally belonged, still maintains its medieval boundaries, but the name "London" has long applied more to the whole metropolis that has grown up around it. London has been an important settlement for over two millenniums.

Christopher Vogler The Writers Journey

M y Australian teachers helped me see that such elements might make good stories for the world market but may not reflect the views of all cultures. T h e y made me aware o f what assumptions were being carried by Hollywood-style films, and of what was not being expressed. xix  THE WRITER'S JOURNEY ~ THIRD EDITION Christopher Vogler In my travels I learned that Australia, Canada, and many countries in Europe subsidize their local filmmakers, in part to help preserve and celebrate local dif­ ferences.
