Pride (2014 Matthew Warchus)

Review here. Directed in a dynamic style where the camera is often moving (tracking), this film has pace (Melanie Oliver edited). Stephen Beresford wrote nothing else (a play 'Last of the Haussmans') but won the BAFTA for Outstanding debut. Of the great cast, Ben Schnetzer is our charismatic leader, has several films in pipeline and some dark ones out there (e.g. The Riot Club). Faye Marsay is the lesbian (GOT, Love, Nina). And rest of cast: George Mackay, Nighy, Staunton, Gilpin, Scott, Dominic West (rather charismatic himself), Freddie Fox.
