Vicki says: “Based on true events, PRIDE tells the story of the improbable cooperation between striking Welsh miners and a group of London gay rights activists. At first the miners want nothing to do with the help being offered by the gay rights group. Luckily for the Londoners, they have one of the union organizers, Hefina, played by Imelda Staunton, on their side. Feisty to a tee, Staunton steals the show. She welcomes the group with open arms and refuses to hear any anti-gay remarks. She is not afraid to voice her opinions. Every comment she makes crackles with humor and/or sarcasm. She has a raunchy more playful side as well. The scene in which she laughs it up with a dildo is just hilarious.”
