I didn't expect it but this scene gave me chills the first time I saw it. It's strange that as a Mexican-American such a British film felt so relatable, but in the end it's a human story.
I am a conservative American and I always admired M. Thacher. But "Brassed off" with Pete deeply touched me. We will live pursuing happiness. Let's just do our best.
@@loganjohnson8010 I was actually saying that the negative effects of the jobs they did is never taken into account, which I thought was clear. Some would argue that the health of the miners is more important than economic prosperity but that's a judgment call you'll have to make for yourself.
Yes it’s true, and so is the fact that they were all thrown out onto their arses systematically without anything. Coal is obviously harmful for the environment, too, but that didn’t matter to the Thatcher Government. What mattered was the financial side. Any sane government would have sought to replace the jobs lost or to help people retrain. All that was offered was the dole. They were thrown out, left for dead, as far as the government was concerned.
They filmed a couple of scenes in my home town. One was the civic theatre and the Piece Hall in Halifax. Met the leader having a ciggie outside the gate😂
Thanks for this.Land of Hope and Bloody Glory indeed. Never truer than now with the greed of the Tories and their friends ruining everything that was decent about the UK.
+MyStellamar You know Harold Wilson closed more pits than Thatcher, do you? And let's face it - who'd open a coal mine now? In fact you'd be on the picket line to stop it! Times change - always sad.
@@theascensialbluesband9984 The problem isn't that it happened, it is the way the Tories did it. It wasn't economics, it was revenge. The useless Tory government also destroyed many viable and good companies with their piss poor management of the economy.

You're why the left always lose. Doing a press conference in front of a flag, playing Land of Hope and Glory at the proms and such stuff is a small price to pay to win an election and make real change. If people like you could let the small petty stuff like this go, maybe we could stop having endless Tory governments.
Hello John, you're quite right. John Smith sorry mate but you're dreaming if you think the likes of Blair and Starmer are anything but Tories. Those bastards will stab you in the back just as quick as the Tories.
Nonsense. The rest of you can always hope for a miracle. "Land of Hope". Well from a different perspective when the UK joined the common market it drove Australian jobs down the toilet. When Thatcher came to power she bought Australian coal and sold British jobs down the toilet. What goes around comes around
A very good film, well-directed, fantastic cast, believable storyline. A little bit politically skewed: the Labour administration before 1979 closed more pits than the Conservative one after, but that's an inconvenient truth. That doesn't detract from the film, which is a work of fiction.
The difference was the Tories didn't do it for economic reasons, they did it for revenge. We were still using coal in power generation, the Tories simply decided to import it.
@@johnsmith-wv4jw and why was that! Scargill saw himself as another who could bring down a Tory government but this time they were prepared for the battle!
@@grahamjones7328 That Thatcher and Scargill loathed each other had a lot to do with it. And that the miners were almost unanimously Labour supporters.
Everyone of labour's pit closures was via a negotiated procedure. Not one was intended to trigger a war with mining communities and the unions. What Labour did economically and agreeably cannot be compared to what Thatcher did to further her class war ambitions.
I wonder what on earth Dear Ole Pete Postlethwaite would be saying about the UK now if he were still with us ? Not much hope, the glories long gone ... and all we have to look forward to is BORIS the Clown of Hunt The ... ya''l know what he is! FFS ...
I agree, even as a conservative. Boris has no concern for the working man, or the traditions that keep whatever glory of our island is left. Sadly, we have lost our way, and it doesn’t seem to be coming home anytime soon.
@@catchercat_yt3503 ... Aye, used to be that the Tories had enough with to give working folk enough to live on at least!

Nobody ever asked "who kept them (and other industries) open when they were losing money, because they were afraid of being the government that closed them?". The money poured into uneconomic industries (by both parties), out of fear, could have been better spent on finding/developing alternatives.
+charles winterton They weren't closed for environmental reasons. Just like how fracking operations nowadays aren't being opened for environmental reasons.
Labour may, which I find hard to believe, closed more pits than the Tories. However, they never set out to destroy towns and cities economies, just to spite the working classes and teach them a lesson for usurping power. Thatcher despised working class people and would do anything to cripple them. A bit political the film ! How on earth could you do a movie of a northern brass band, that never involved they continuing struggle to keep their heads above water.
you need to remember that not all the mining communities in the country were borderline communist. I myself are part of a Colliery Band in County Durham and our Pit Banner doesn't show the signs of anything Communist. There are a few Banners that I have seen that show Karl Marx, Lennon and that lot but not all.
But who says it's tory shit, reclaiming it for yourself. I'm not from the UK but who says the Tory have ownership over this song. UK is land of hope and glory or at least England is.

What the caption doesn't say is how the miners suffered terrible lung deseases and other grave health problems from working down the pit.
Are you saying that the economical problems in the communities are less important than the lung conditions that develope later in life?
