Title: An All-Time Favorite
Product review: To read the synopsis on the back of the box, you'd assume this is just another fluffy romantic comedy. Did the writer even watch the movie? While it does have its comic and romantic moments it's basically a serious look at the residents of a British mining community and the stress and despair faced by families and community as their source of livelihood, the mine, faces closure. The story follows the one remaining ray of community pride as the miner's Colliery band competes for a shot at the championship in London. It also follows the political and management process of choosing efficiency and profit over the welfare of the miners.The entire film is well acted, the music is outstanding and the story is at once heart-breaking and heart-warming. A wonderful movie!
