I have put these lists together simply to promote the fact that there are some rather popular films that have still not been released on Blu-ray in the UK. Upon (hopefully) having the powers that be see these lists, steps may well be taken to make them shorter!
There is obviously no one criteria that says how 'big' a film is, but I do think using the IMDb rankings - by vote number not by popularity, which fluctuates rapidly - has more positives than negatives. I think it generally strikes a good balance between 'blockbusters' and 'classics' although obviously there are more of the former in the last few decades, and more of the latter in the earlier decades. This is a link to the IMDb list for 1950. Part One: 1920s to 1940s Collated from IMDb rankings by 'Number of Votes'. Top ten films per year. 1920s Code:

To address this I have looked at the Top 25 British Productions list calculated by the British Film Institute and recorded on Wikipedia here. These only look at sound films, but I have also included our most watched silent film (which remains unreleased on Blu-ray despite it being a UNESCO 'Document of Worldwide Historical Significance'). Of the 25 films in this list, nine are unreleased. To put these figures into perspective, our population in 1950 was 50 million. Code:
Spring In Park Lane - 1949 - 20.50 million admissions The Wicked Lady - 1945 - 18.40m The Seventh Veil - 1945 - 17.90m The Courtney's Of Curzon Street - 1947 - 15.90m Doctor In The House - 1954 - 12.20m Fanny By Gaslight - 1944 - 11.70m Piccadilly Incident - 1946 - 11.50m Carry On Nurse - 1959 - 10.40m 49th Parallel - 1941 - 9.30m The Battle Of The Somme - 1916 - 20m+ Code:
The Best Years Of Our Life - 1947 - 20.40 million admissions The Greatest Show On Earth - 1952 - 13.00m The Great Caruso - 1951 - 12.40m Random Harvest - 1943 - 12.00m The Jolson Story - 1947 - 11.60m Crocodile Dundee - 1986 - 9.80m The only thing I could find is this list from the BFI on Wikipedia that ranks British films with earnings of over £10 million since 1989, which due to the benchmark set is heavily weighted towards films released in the last decade. Of the 13 films listed, two have not been released on Blu-ray: Code:

Really good list but I think there’s a couple on there that are available (or going to be).
L’Age D’Or has a BFI release. ![]() Killer’s Kiss is an extra in Arrow’s The Killing. ![]() Elevator to the Gallows (titled Lift to the Scaffold over here) is in the Louis Malle set from Artificial Eye. ![]() Shoot the Piano Player (called Shoot the Pianist over here) was released but looks like it may be OOP now. ![]() Five Easy Pieces is coming out from Criteron November 16th but for some reason doesn’t have an entry yet. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Five-Easy-P...9918892&sr=8-1 Mirror has been released by Artificial Eye. ![]() |

Unless the BFI ever does a boxed set of the Thames Silents that's probably the best we can expect.

This should indeed really not be in the North America section, as you are not talking about North American releases. |
