Pride is a 2014 historical comedy-drama film written by Stephen Beresford and directed by Matthew Warchus. It stars Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Dominic West, Paddy Considine, Andrew Scott, George MacKay, Joseph Gilgun and Ben Schnetzer. Based on a true story, the film depicts a group of lesbian and gay activists who raised money to help families affected by the British miners' strike in 1984, at the outset of what would become the Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners campaign. The film had its world premiere in the Directors' Fortnight section of the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Queer Palm award. Screenwriter Beresford said a stage musical adaptation involving director Warchus was being planned. Pride was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Mot
