[I Just Watched] Pride, 2014 (discuss.tchncs.de)

A story on how gay activists supported the miners strikes in the UK in 1984.

Quite wholesome movies, good acting and characters, well directed. Would recommend if the trailer appeals to you.

Shame they played down his communism but it's a great film.

I love this film, have watched it numerous times.

The song For A Friend by The Communards that plays over the closing credits was written for Mark Ashton (played in the film by Ben Schnetzer), and it's a sad, poignant and beautiful song.

The fact that it's based on a true story makes it even better indeed.

Thanks for sharing!
