The British Film Institute (or, BFI) is a charitable organisation that promotes and celebrates the history of films and television in {{Britain}}. It has the largest film archive in the world, owns two cinemas in London, runs an education program, co-owns museums based around film history, releases a monthly magazine, has a library full of research references, gives out Fellows of the British Film Institute awards annually for people that have made a considerable input in motion picture history worldwide, and even produces its own movies and some TV shows.

* ''The Sight & Sound's 50 Greatest Films of All Time'' -- chosen worldwide by several filmmakers, directors and critics, this was published in the BFI's ''Sight & Sound'' magazine in 2012. It was split into two with the Critics' choices in one poll and Directors' choices in another.

Needless to say, the BFI does a lot of things. It's also been around a long time too, first forming in 1933, and is funded by the UK's National Lottery, British-owned media studios, private donations and the government. Not to mention, it follows a royal charter that was established by the UK government and TheHouseOfWindsor in 1983 (which you can see at the top of this page), meaning that has a ''royal duty'' to exist.
