One thing about The Englishman Who Went up a Hill....  Since you were looking for a family movie, you may want to know that that there is a character (Morgan the Goat) who has fathered many children in the community while the husbands were gone, evidenced by all of the young children with his same red hair.  It may go over your dc's heads, but it may not.

Lol. I had forgotten that...but it is one of those more subtle types of humor than your average fare:)

Secret Garden, the lead is American but everyone else and the locale is English. I'm talking about the film adaptation from the 90's.

 

How Green Was My Valley is set in Wales, it's a family drama with some heavy themes, but a classic film for the whole family.

 

The Water Horse involves a "Loch Ness Monster" and is set against WWII, but it is a children's movie.

 

We love anything with Wallace and Gromit. Really, I love them. It is stop animation but clever enough for the whole family. This team also made Chicken Run and Flushed Away.

 

Technically Mary Poppins and Bedknobs and Broomsticks aren't British films, but I'm an Anglophile and I like to pretend they are :).

 

ETA: I just realized you wrote English language and not English, sorry for the English film suggestions.
