comment
It's the summer of 1984, Margaret Thatcher is in power and the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) is on strike. At the Gay Pride March in London, a group of gay and lesbian activists decides to raise money to support the families of the striking miners. But there is a problem: the Union seems embarrassed to receive their support.But the activists are not deterred. They decide to ignore the Union and go directly to the miners. They identify a mining village in deepest Wales and set off in a mini bus to make their donation in person.Pride is a 2014 British film based on the historical Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners campaign in 1984–1985. It stars an ensemble cast that includes Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Dominic West, Paddy Considine, Andrew Scott, George MacKay, Joseph Gilgun, and Ben Schnetzer.

Non-Indicative Title: While a Pride Parade serves as the Book Ends of the film, the plot is primarily about a queer organization raising money for Welsh miners during the 1984 strike. However, an early scene quotes a miner saying that they will "keep on having" their pride (despite their deprivations and opposition by the government), thematically linking the two groups.

Arc Symbol: Clasped hands, as a representation for solidarity and support. Dai explicitly explains the hands' significance as a labour symbol on the Dulais Valley Miners' banner to Mark. Handshakes between LGSM and the mining community are repeatedly shown as the groups bond. In a quiet moment, Steph and Joe clasp hands as they lie together.

Title Drop: An overwrought Mark telling one of the other LGSM members to "have some fucking pride" towards the end of the film. More subtly, in the opening scene, it's a union spokesman's use of "we have our pride" to describe the strike that makes Mark stop in his tracks.

Token Lesbian: Steph describes herself as this early on when she is the only lesbian in LGSM. However, they get two more lesbians after a Rousing Speech in a gay bar. The two women eventually leave to form their own group for queer women supporting the miners, but Steph opts to remain with LGSM due to her close ties with the men (while conveniently keeping their name from becoming an Artifact Title).

Go Through Me: Seen on the picket line, with miners facing off against the police, when one of the cops grabs a young miner by the face (coming dangerously close to the eyes) and shoves him in a clear attempt at provocation. A furious Cliff physically forces himself between the youth and the police line, pushing the young man further back into the safety of the crowd.

comment
Even Evil Has Standards: Maureen's sons share, and in many cases actively fan the flames of, her homophobia. This doesn't stop the youngest from showing up to march at Pride, even putting on a smile and shaking hands respectfully, as a show of solidarity. He is, at the end of the day, a Union man first. It's also implied that he suffered a Heel Realization too late, realizing only after he helped his mother sabotage LGSM support that in the past few days alone, the group he'd accused of getting distracted from the strike had raised thousands of pounds in their name and single-handedly saved the Dulais chapter from being unable to continue the strike at all.

Bittersweet Ending: The miners would eventually be defeated by Thatcher's Conservative government, but the relationship between LGSM and the Dulais miners in the strike result in solidarity between the miners and the gay community, who were just as pushed around by that government, leading to the Labour Party enshrining gay and lesbian rights in its manifesto, thanks to the unanimous support of the NUM. Mark Ashton dies of AIDS aged 26 - but Jonathan, HIV-positive, is still alive and healthy as of 2023, over 40 years after his diagnosis. Sian James later goes onto university and is elected the first female MP for Swansea East.

comment
Chummy Commies: In Mark's first scene a Communist flag can be seen in his flat, and later on another character makes a disparaging remark is made at him regarding his supposed Communism. This is however also the basis for his desire for solidarity. The real Mark Ashton was in fact a member of the Communist Party, although this was apparently downplayed in order to avoid alienating US audiences. It goes unmentioned but almost all of the LGSM characters were some kind of Marxist, whether they be Trotskyists, or members of the CPGB, or just people on the extreme left of the Labour Party.

Police Are Useless: Worse than useless, the police have become totally hostile to the miners. One of the key moments for LGSM in breaking the ice with the miners is their experience with police persecution providing the miners with valuable information on due process law, which gets several younger miners out of jail.

Karma Houdini Warranty: Maureen isn't shown to suffer any comeuppance for her sabotage of LGSM; however, given that she is suspected to have informed the press about LGSM (making her an informer, which in union terms is only slightly less heinous than being a scab) and she is known to have cut off the funding from LGSM (a lucrative source of support for the miners and their families, who are literally being starved by Thatcher), she has pretty much committed social suicide and will likely face ostracism from the rest of the village.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Cliff is almost able to convince Maureen to drop her homophobia and come over to meet the LGSM members. Then another member of the town walks by and yells at Maureen to "get the stick out of your ass" causing her to slam the door on Cliff and call a right-wing newspaper with the story about LGSM supporting the miners

Foreshadowing: When Dai says that LGSM are the first gay and lesbians that he has ever met, Mark points out that they are only the first that he knows of. Later it's revealed that his old friend Cliff is gay. It's established that LGSM members are not to go out collecting alone. Gethin later does, pissed off about the union's vote to cut ties, and gets severely gay bashed as a result. Mark's confrontation with HIV in his former lover and resulting HIV scare and Heroic BSoD foreshadows real life Mark Ashton's death by AIDS in 1987, only a few years after the events of the film. Cliff tells Maureen in no uncertain terms that she's mistaken for thinking her late husband (who was also Cliff's brother) would have approved of her relentless homophobia towards the LGSM members. It's later revealed that Cliff himself is gay. At the Pits and Perverts ball, Dai thanks the queer community for taking on the miners' cause and vows that they will repay that by taking on the queer communities cause in turn. This is backed up first by hundreds of miners marching in the 1985 Pride parade in a show of solidarity, then by providing the political muscle to enshrine gay rights in the Labour Party's manifesto later that year.

Mood Whiplash: While this is a mostly feel-good movie, it does have its fair share of emotional moments. The biggest and most notable example probably comes when the scene instantly shifts from the Welsh women laughing over some gay porn they've found to Joe returning home only to discover his mother weeping and his father furious and realises that he's been outed. Also highly noteable is the Crowning Moment of Heartwarming that is the "Bread and Roses" Crowd Song being immediately followed by Maureen's sons shouting homophobic insults at the LGSM members and Sian's husband physically throwing them out of the hall.

Averted with the women who travel from Dulais to help with Pits and Perverts. They dance up a storm in a number of gay bars and mix freely with the regulars.

Not That There's Anything Wrong with That: Occurs a few times as the miners adjust to having LGSM in their midst.

But Not Too Gay

comment
But Not Too Gay: One of the LGSM group suggests they try to tone it down so as not to shock the mining town's residents too much at first. Jonathan acidly responds that it's been a while since he spoke Fifties.

Jerkass: Maureen is blatantly homophobic, as well as her two sons, although the youngest appears to change his tune towards the end.

Disco Dan: Jonathan misses disco, although in 1984, it wasn't entirely ancient history yet.

Decomposite Character: Joe is fictional. In real life, the "official photographer" for LGSM was actually Jeff.

comment
Easily Forgiven: Mark severs ties with the rest of the group after his Heroic BSoD. He reconciles with them near the end, but neither explains his reasons nor explicitly says that he's sorry. Then again, they are a Family of Choice—and there's no real indication that the rest of LGSM ever actually resented him for an emotional outburst he clearly didn't mean, following a devastating loss.
