Representation of National and Regional Identity. Looking at Pride (2014)



Media Representations of Representation of regional identity from Craig Osborne


PRIDE (2014)
A funny, emotional, and very British film, about the true story of a gay group that helps support a mining town through the strikes of 1984, and the history they made by doing so. Full of great performances in an all start British cast. 

A very good media text to analyse for a number of representations is the film Pride (2014). Here's the trailer:



And here's a few links to good articles discussing the representation within the movie:
