Storyline
A small Yorkshire mining town is threatened with being shut down 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 is a sweet film with a lot of anger at its core.

ReelViews
Brassed Off! is a traditional feel-good motion picture with an element of social commentary thrown in for good measure.

The characters are beautifully drawn in this bittersweet melodrama written and directed by Mark Herman.

The New York Times
Brassed Off is shamelessly manipulative and sentimental, but in an agreeably familiar way.

In the end, though, the undeniable power and emotional richness of this film swing the balance toward the good.
