It is not very often that a movie can take you from the edge of tears one moment, to smiling and laughing the next. Pride is a shining example of how to take an audience and get them emotionally involved in the highs and lows of the Characters.
Based on real events during the miners strike of 1984, it tells the story of a group of Lesbians and Gay Men who decided to fundraise in order to help the miners. It is a tale of Cultures Coliding, prejudices broken, friendships formed and society enriched. It stands as a testament to how far LGBT rights have come in 30 years, and how much more there is to do.
This is a rare gem of a movie, superbly written, well acted and emotionally engaging. This should not be seen as a Homosexual movie, everyone should see this film regardless if your sexual orientation, a masterpiece 10/10
