A Yorkshire coal mine is threatened with closure and the only hope is for the men to enter their Grimley Colliery Brass Band into a national competition. They believe they have no hope until Gloria appears carrying her Flugelhorn. At first mocked for being a woman, she soon becomes the only chance for the band to win.

Brassed Off Ratings & Reviews

ርልዪረFebruary 20, 2025
Much more drama than comedy, the script is nonetheless finely tuned and effective. It is a real tearjerker in places, with shocking events later on. Great acting and music - the result is a beautifully made classic. My one qualm is the hard left point of view it seems to endorse late in the film - the view that the pits should never have closed. It does this by giving a character with this view the last word on it. I've seen ex-miners say they didn't want their sons or grandsons to have the same working life as they did, and I think its important not to romanticise the mines. The film, however, does a great job of portraying the community life of the mining town and how it was to be dismantled by pit closures.
