TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The song 'For a Friend', which is heard playing over the end credits, was actually written for the real Mark Ashton. It was written and performed by The Communards, whose members Jimmy Somerville and Richard Coles were both friends of Mark.

Although Mark's political affiliation was not mentioned in the film possibly to avoid alienating viewers, a communist flag can be seen hanging from his apartment wall in the opening sequence. In the movie, he can be seen wearing red star pins on his jacket lapels, and he also gets "commie" shouted at him when going on a stage at a gay bar.

While there had been more than 1,000 coal mines in the UK during the first half of the 20th century, by 1984 there were only 173 still operating.

In interviews to promote the film, Bill Nighy said that the emancipation of gay men and women in the UK in the post-Margaret Thatcher years was one of the greatest things to have happened in his lifetime.

Some of the actual people depicted in the movie make cameo appearances in the Westminster Bridge scene: Reggie Blennerhassett and Ray Aller (played by Chris Overton and Joshua Hill), Gethin Roberts (played by Andrew Scott), Gethin's Mum (played by Olwen Medi), Mike Jackson (played by Joe Gilgun) and Ray Goodspeed (not directly portrayed in the movie but a leading light in LGSM).

Popular Dialogues

"[Giving a Speech in a Gay Bar] Dai: I've had a lot of new experiences during this strike. Speaking in public, standing on a picket line, And now I'm in a gay bar. Jonathan: Well, if you don't like it, you can go home. Dai: As a matter of fact, I do like it. [Crowd Ooh's] Dai: Beer's a bit expensive, mind. [Crowd Laughs] Dai: But, really, there's only one difference between this and a bar in South Wales. The women. They're a lot more feminine in here. [the Crowd Laughs and Cheers] Dai: What I'd really like to say to you tonight is thank you. If you're one of the people that's put money in these buckets, if you've supported LGSM, then thank you, because what you've given us is more than money. It's friendship. When you're in a battle against an enemy so much bigger, so much stronger than you, well, to find out you had a friend you never knew existed, well, that's the best feeling in the world. So, thank you. [the Crowd Applauds and Cheers Dai and LGSM]"

Reggie: You can't possibly say that every woman is a lesbian. Zoe: Why not? Reggie: Because they're not! Esther Rantzen isn't a lesbian. My mum is not a lesbian. Stella: How do you know? Reggie: How do I know my Mum's not a lesbian? Ray: What he's trying to say is, you can't make grand, sweeping generalizations. It's not acceptable.
