Nathalie   10 #1 Posted January 13, 2007 Hi !  I'm french and before coming here, I only knew Sheffield by the movie : "the full monty" (very successful in France !). What do you, Sheffielders, think about that movie ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Guest   #3 Posted January 13, 2007 It's an excellent film. Robert Carlisle does a great Sheffield accent for a Scottish bloke too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Ivor&Mel   10 #5 Posted January 13, 2007 Excellent film that I still watch. I think this did more to bring Sheffield to the attention of the world than anything else; and in a way that left people feeling better for having watched it.

artisan   10 #6 Posted January 13, 2007 If you want to see a film about true Yorkshiremen watch 'Brassed Off', or 'East is East' Both brilliant scenarioes of true Yorkshire life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Rich   12 #9 Posted January 13, 2007 I love the film, it was on Sky last week, and I have it on DVD, was in a Woolies in Westward Ho a few years back, had £7 burning a hole in my wallet and bought the Full Monty on DVD.  Yep, they have branches of Woolies as far South as Cornwall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Angel05   10 #10 Posted January 13, 2007 Great Movie  A film that can be watched over & over, keep meaning to get it on DVD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Nathalie   10 #11 Posted January 13, 2007 I love this movie too...! I found it very funny and also very sensitive...  However, a friend of mine, which is from Sheffield, thinks that it is giving a wrong and dark picture of Sheffield that is no more actual. He said that because of it many people still think that it is a very poor and bad place to live... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
