    If _Pride_ had been dreamt up by a screenwriter, no studio in their right mind would’ve backed it—miners and queer activists teaming up in Thatcher’s Britain? Come off it. But because it’s rooted in truth, it’s got real bite. I found it a solidly good romp with a banging jukebox soundtrack and just enough political heft to give it weight—Section 28, police harassment, the AIDS crisis all get a look-in. It’s full of heart, even if the casting lets it down; for a film so full of Welsh characters, there’s far too many English (and Irish) actors with wobbly accents.

Billy Elliot

County Durham, England, 1984. The miners' strike has started and the police have started coming up from Bethnal Green, starting a class war with the lower classes suffering. Caught in the middle of the conflict is 11-year old Billy Elliot, who, after leaving his boxing club for the day, stumbles upon a ballet class and finds out that he's naturally talented. He practices with his teacher Mrs. Wilkinson for an upcoming audition in Newcastle-upon Tyne for the royal Ballet school in London.
