Sight & is a British monthly film magazine published by the British Film Institute Sight & Sound was first published in 1932. The film consists of reviews of all film releases each month
, including more art films as opposed to the more mainstream focus of its competitors. Sight and Sound also currently features a full cast and crew credit list for each reviewed film. Sigh and sound is very different in context, it doesn't consist of a top 10s such as in empire, the sight and sound magazine focuses on a less commercial side of film.
