主播大秀 Films鈥� Pride is a true story of a group of gay and lesbian activists who decided to support a Welsh mining community during the strike of 1984. It was released in September and stars Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Dominic West and Paddy Considine. Here is a quick selection of film reviews.
Mark Kermode in the says: 鈥渢his boisterous tale of the unlikely union between striking Welsh miners and out-and-proud gay Londoners is one of the most irresistibly uplifting films of the year 鈥� for any audience.鈥�
While the review says: 鈥淚t rightly and joyously gets to celebrate things that are rarely found in films set in modern-day Britain, such as political idealism and activism, community spirit, political bookshops, and sympathetic trade-unionists.鈥�
awards the film 5 stars: 鈥淭he desire to know about them all [the characters] is a testament to Stephen Beresford鈥檚 screenplay and Warchus鈥� superlative direction of a story that not only marks the 30th anniversary of the strike with respect, but honours the efforts of the late with enormous pride.鈥�
says: "Pride doesn't shy away from the realities of the hard-won fight for equality: the vigilante attacks on gay people and their families; the scorn of passers-by in the early pride marches; the brutality of Thatcher's army of police. They all rear their ugly head in this illuminatingly truthful film.鈥澛�
