Alan Clarke's Play for Today about Russian dissidents, written by Jehane Markham. The film is a nice counterpoint to Clarke's Bukovsky, where we get to see a documentary about a Soviet writer who managed to escape to Britain in the '70s. This is a fictional account of a similar story. Nina, unlike Bukovsky, has a little more range and is a little more enthralling. This is mainly due to the wonderful performance by Eleanor Bron, which brings the complexities of the story to the screen. The film is deliberately slow and quietly understated, allowing Clarke to ratchet unseen tension with his long takes, and calculated time-jumps. It may never quite get to the heart of Soviet system, or of the defected life, but it is a very good character study of two people who have made a very difficult choice. |

The Price Of Coal DVD - Series 1 + 2 (1977) Play for Today - Ken Loach Rita May, Bobby Knutt, Paul CThe first episode, Meet the People, is a comedy-drama dealing with preparations for an official visit to the colliery by Prince Charles. The humour revolves around the expensive and ludicrous preparations required for an official visit from a member of the Royal Family. Some workers recognise this and cannot take it seriously. Management recognises it but has to 'play the game'. Special toilets must be constructed "just in case" and destroyed after the visit. A worker is instructed to paint a brick holding up a window. On the eve of the visit, the slogan "Scargill rules OK" is painted on a wall. The manager comments "When I find out who did that I'll string him up by his knackers". In another scene, an argument takes place in a pub between colliers opposed to the expenditure on the visit and who think the colliery was chosen because its union officials were relatively conservative and other colliers who are looking forward to the visit. The second episode, Back to Reality, takes place a month later and deals with an underground explosion that kills several miners and follows the attempts to rescue others that remain trapped. Director: Ken Loach (as Kenneth Loach) |
