Cinemoments: Brassed Off
Фильм және анимация
During these trying and uncertain times, we hope to be able to spread a little bit of love and movie magic by showcasing some of our favourite moments in film.
Next up is Martin Grindlay, Finance and Operations Manager, with this beautifully stirring clip from the 1996 bittersweet drama Brassed Off.
In North Yorkshire, a local colliery band led by Danny (Pete Postlethwaite), prepare for the National Brass Band championships, at a time when the pit's miners face redundancy. When the daughter of a former band leader named Gloria (Tara Fitzgerald) arrives, her return to the band raises their spirits, alongside a blossoming relationship with one of the band’s younger members (Ewan McGregor).
With Gloria leading on the flugelhorn, this pivotal scene showcases the band performing Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez. Combining the yearning, pining quality of brass band music with the film’s dry humour, politics and human stories, Brassed Off reminds us that it's the music that matters.
Please note Cinemoments may not be available in all territories.

I don't know why, but this movie it's one of my favourites of all time. ❤️
It still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. All I can say absolutely beautiful.
Going to have this at my funeral. So beautiful, so moving. Not a dry eye...
The acting is superb, the plot compelling, the music beautiful, and Tara Fitzgerald is gorgeous. What a fine movie!

You mean Gloria.......
Watched it so many times, but the goose bumps remain. What a wonderful film. Billy Elliot was one I saw many times. Tiny budget but unforgettable movies 🎥🎥🎥🎥
I am a miner's son and a former trombone player, albeit in a swing big band. This touched me in so many ways. Thanks for uploading!
She calls that wobbly. Brilliant Pete.
Cant think of anything so beautifull as this Piece of music
Un film coup de poing particulièrement émouvant et une des plus belles scènes du film ! A voir et revoir ! Extraordinaire Pete Postlethwaite... décédé trop tôt
Pete posstlethwaite amazing
I'm not crying. You are.
Gets me every time I hear this tune 😭
Pete's acting and the music, it's hard to tell who gave the greater performance. There was never a better actor, nor was there ever a better piece of music, just my opinion

I remember reading all about the trouble of closing the coal mines in England, reading about it in the Daily telegraph in Australia. Putting miners out of work because it was cheaper to import coal from China. Can you please tell an illinformed man about people who were effected by pit closures how has their lives moved forward.

Speaking for myself, as an ex-miner, made redundant Christmas 1990, it was a bit of a roller coaster ride. Took me about four years to find a full time job, did have part time jobs as a warehouse worker, taxi driver, data inputter. Eventually got in to working in social housing as a support worker, my last job was in a mental health rehab unit, which lasted me up to retirement seven years ago. That was a job I loved, worthwhile and good people to work with. Closing the pit was, for me, probably a good thing in the end, certainly health wise, if I'd worked in the pit up to retirement it would probably have left more of a mark.

Thanks for sharing your story . Enjoy your retirement and may it be a long one , it sounds as if you truly earned it .
Fabulous
Good thing this movie came out before the whole global warming thing got started. Today many Green people would say the mines should have been closed twenty years sooner.
Yassss queeen x
Women and men who went through miners strike together

The Tories are currently wanting to open a new pit but Labour aren't so sure.
Exactly what kind of horn is she playing? It looks too large to be a trumpet.

Garbage. It's the Grimethorpe brass band. It says something about you that you can't read credits.
