Director Sam Miller’s 1998 film is a likeable, moving and highly charged love story based around the strange lives and dangerous passions of a group of pylon painters on the Yorkshire moors. Pete Postlethwaite plays […]
Brassed Off **** (1996, Pete Postlethwaite, Tara Fitzgerald, Ewan McGregor) – Classic Movie Review 425
