MR 03: Brassed Off

I will introduce about the movie “Brassed Off”. The movie was produced in the UK in 1996. The main stage is small colliery town in Yorkshire England. There were a lot of miners but they had a problem. It was the closing of colliery so if the colliery closes, a lot of miners lost their job. It was such a big problem for them so almost all the people opposed the closing of the colliery. Besides, if the colliery closed, the miners can’t belong to the Grimethorpe Colliery Band. So the miners were worried about it very much. But, they had hopes with Grimethorpe Colliery Band.

This story’s characters are Danny, Gloria, Andy, Phill, Harry, Jim, Ernle and others. Their town had a brass band club. The group’s name is the Grimethorpe Colliery Band. Danny, Andy, Phill, Harry, Jim, Ernle belonged to the brass band club. Danny is the main character of this movie and he is the conductor of the brass band club. He was proud of the brass band club and it was a religion for him. He loved the Grimethorpe Colliery Band very much. But, he will get chest trouble later in the movie. It was so sad for the people. Another character is Gloria. She came to work in Yorkshire. She is a beautiful woman and her grandfather was an intimate friend with Danny. Andy is such a cool man. Phill is son of Danny. He has a family. But, he had one problem. It is his home is poor. So it was a lot of trouble with money problems for him. Besides, his father will get a chest troubles. So he can’t handle the sadness so he tried to commit suicide by hanging himself at one night. It was a surprise to the people around him. Fortunately, he didn’t die so it was so good.

One day, a woman came to work in Yorkshire. She is Gloria. She had a flugelhorn. She can play music so she was searching for a place to play it. She heard that there was one possible play to play the flugelhorn in one place. So she went to there. There were the members of the Grimethorpe Colliery Band. But, she was not accepted by all members because she wasn’t a person of the town. Joining to the brass band club was prohibited to people from another town. But, she is a person of the town so she joined the brass band club. Also, her performance was so wonderful so all members accepted Gloria. At that time, Gloria met again with Andy. Gloria had met him before. But, Gloria pretended she did not know about Andy. Andy likes for Gloria of her appearance. They will fall in love after. The Grimethorpe Colliery Band took part in competition of British town bands. Then they got the championship of the competition. It was very good for them.

This movie’s highlight is the performing scene of the Grimethorpe Colliery Band. When Danny was entered the hospital on the first night, the band’s members came outside his hospital and they performed there. The scene was so stirring for me. I like the scene very much. This story was a little difficult to understand for me. But, I was moved very much. If you have not seen this movie, please watching this movie. (566words)
