Saw 'Pride' at the cinema today.
Wow this is fantastic. I'd honestly put it a whisker below GOTG for film of the year so far. I was boucing out of the cinema with a big smile on my face. It's a film about how great humanity can be when it has a mind to be. The trailer...

...is marketing it as a baudy fun comedy like 'The Full Monty' but it's much more political and akin to the powerful social commentary of 'Brassed Off'. The cinematography looks all grainy and in period, the design detail is meticulous and the 80s soundtrack is first class (I listened to Billy Bragg on the way home as one of his songs closes the movie).
Amazing performances from a huge cast to make you laugh, cheer, cry and get angry. Especially Andrew 'Moriarty' Scott. It was so refreshing that they didn't go the easy route and have one central easy to digest character. Every character in the large cast has their own little story which never feels rushed. A serious feet of writing!
This film will make your day better, guaranteed :-)
