This is not helpful to UK producers. It should be noted that the data is based on a model derived from the performance of BFI/UK Film Council films so is hardly representative. They have mostly backed niche arthouse films with limited audiences for cultural purposes, or poured many hundreds of thousands into films from a narrow group of producers getting repeat awards and basically funded the above the line costs for bloated budgets. So how does this research reflect on savvy indie producers that don't rely on subsidy funding, making commercial films on sensible budgets aimed at the international market? Badly.
