Pride (2014)
So I really enjoyed this film. I expected a preachy and tedious movie that stuffed messages down your throat, but instead this was an intelligent, well-acted story that stars out with a simple goal and then expands into developing richer themes as the characters begin to examine their lives at the end.
In many ways, it is a cute and sentimental look at a true story. But it's also often sad and disgusting to see the severe homophobia at play here. There were some parts I didn't love, but this was pretty great overall.
