MR#3 "Brassed Off"

This movie was a story on a town of coal miners. This town’s name is Grimley. Gloria, who lived in the town when she was young came back to the town. She had a flugelhorn. She took the advice of the owner of her rooming house to play with the local brass band called the Grimley Colliery Band. She performed with wonderful skill in front of the band members, and she became one of the band members. All the band members expect Gloria were men, and they worked at the coal mine. First, they didn’t know Gloria’s work office, so they were getting along very nicely. But, one day, they noticed that she worked for the management company. Their hearts were broken. Meanwhile, Danny who was the conductor of the band suffered pneumoconiosis, a desease from working in the coal mind, and went into a hospital. It decided to close the coal mine. So, all the band members gave up the final of the national brass band competition. But, Gloria encouraged band members and helped them go to the competition. The performance was a success, but their coal mine was closed when they came back their town.
There is not one main character in this movie. All members of the band are main characters. There are some love scenes between Alan and Gloria, but this main story is about coal miners. I think the miners were poor people. Alan is the youngest man in the band. Gloria is only woman player in the band. And, she worked at the management company whereas the other band members worked in the coal mine. Danny is the conductor of the band, and he is Phil’s father. Phil is also a band member. He played trombone. Everyone lived with all their might.
In this movie, this story isn’t fiction. Hundreds of thousands of miners were discharged in fact. I think this fact was very sad. Now, I can live very comfortable, but there were the pains of the person at the bottom of the convenient life.
