The Observer newspaper in Britain has launched a film magazine, which this week pitched up an interesting article by Killian Fox called "Haven't I seen that before?"

In it Fox looks at the influences, both acknowledged and unacknowledged, behind some recent classics, Including "Reservoir Dogs" and "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon."

Also worth a look is the extract from Helen de Winter 's new book "What I Really Want To Do Is Produce."

You can find it as part of the Guardian Unlimited's film coverage, which is a site which can easily swallow up the better part of your day
