StipeTripe Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Up n Under. I wonder what appeals about that film. The fine action shots, its amazing how they captured the sheer vibrancy of peanut huggin, what else could there be?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyterryb Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Kes is a good film, it's not my cup of tea - but writer Hines and helmer Loach made a brilliant film. It made me think of other Great British films, Brit Flicks that stood out for their snapshot of an era - and brilliant social analysis. Not unlike Kes... Here's five truly incredible British Films that managed to tick the boxes... 1. Scum (1979) Dir: Alan Clarke Written By: Roy Minton Ray Winstone, Phil Daniels, Mick Ford >>>> YOUTUBE CLIP <<<< 2. The Firm (1988) Dir: Alan Clarke Written By: Al Ashton Gary Oldman, Lesley Manville, Philip Davis >>>> YOUTUBE CLIP <<<< 3. Made in Britain (1982) Dir: Alan Clarke Written By: David Leland Tim Roth >>>> YOUTUBE CLIP <<<< 4. Get Carter (1971) Dir: Mike Hodges Written By: Ted Lewis, Mike Hodges Michael Caine, Brit Ekland >>>> YOUTUBE CLIP <<<< 5. Rita, Sue and Bob Too (1986) Dir: Alan Clarke (! - Bit of a trend developing) Written By: Andrea Dunbar Michelle Holmes, Siobhan Finneran, George Costigan What about Kathy Come Home... Rita Tushingham at her best... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyterryb Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 This Sporting Life - 1963 - Lindsay Anderson/David Storey. With Richard Harris and Wakefield Trinity! Brilliant brilliant film. Good Call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyterryb Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 A more modern British classic is 'Brassed Off', which is the subject of Movie Connections on BBC 1 at 10.35 pm tonight. Pete Postlethwaite's speech in the Albert Hall had me in tears! Many scenes in this film reduced me to tears. I was around during the Miners strike during the Eighties and saw the devastation it wrought on the North of England. The scene at the Childrens birthday party had me laughing and crying in equal measure. The jolly around Saddleworth also brought back fond memories of Whit Fridays p:censored:* ups. Good call Diego.

Many ex-miners keep a day's holiday every year ready for when Margaret Thatcher dies. They're planning to have street parties in celebration.
