The tenancy will have to be for a minimum term of 12 months.

Closing date for applications: Friday 29th October 2010 Made In Dagenham tells the story of the women machinist strikes at the Dagenham Ford plant, which eventually led to the Equal Pay Act. The women, who worked sewing the car seats together, were unfairly classed as unskilled workers and made to work in appalling conditions – this was not uncommon at the time, but was the first time women had ever been on strike. The cast is extremely strong - Sally Hawkins as the leader of the action, Rosamund Pike as rich but still downtrodden supporter and Miranda Richardson as Barbara Castle all deliver vivid, moving performances, and Bob Hoskins as a sympathetic male union official is thoroughly charming. Kenneth Cranham also makes a wonderfully slimy villain of the piece. I also especially enjoyed the relationship between the protagonist and her essentially decent but occasionally narky husband, played by Daniel Mays. I would have liked a little more in the way of grit and a little less sentimentality from the film, though some of the detail of the day-to-day business of being on Shift managers, kitchen staff, telephone receptionists & delivery drivers all wanted for new Pizza Hut Delivery unit in Rosehill.

[email protected] FILM REVIEW strike and having to take a free cauliflower to make dinner with was nicely painted. The beauty and bureaucracy of the union system is also perfectly captured. The film cast Barbara Castle as a bit of a hero, which I’m not sure is accurate, but I was very convinced that the spirit of the women striking was very faithful to how it was – there are interviews with some of the real women involved over the credits, which were to me the most affecting part of the film - far more touching than close-ups of Sally Hawkins crying. This film is a beautiful portrayal of the beginnings of a movement still very much in progress – only last Friday the government failed to pass proposed legislation to force big business to conduct audits Made In Dagenham [15] ODEON (GEORGE ST): daily until Thu 7: 3.00, 5.45, 8.30pm PHOENIX PICTUREHOUSE: Mon 4, Tue 5, Thu 7: 1.15, 3.45, 6.20. 9.00pm; Wed 6: 11.30am (screening for parents & babies under 1), 3.45pm, 6.20pm, 9.00pm VUE CINEMA: daily until Thu 7: 3.20, 6.00, 8.40pm on gender pay discrepancies, and women are currently paid 16.4% less than men across the board for full time work. The film shows how far we’ve come as a society in terms of equality but also how far we still have to go – as one of the characters says, “Rights, not privileges. It’s not difficult.” Made in Dagenham is an accessible and moving account of how we, as a society, addressed a great unfairness, and as such I wholeheartedly recommend it.

The women, who worked sewing the car seats together, were unfairly classed as unskilled workers and made to work in appalling conditions – this was not uncommon at the time, but was the fi rst time women had ever been on strike.The cast is extremely strong - Sally Hawkins as the leader of the action, Rosamund Pike as rich but still downtrodden supporter and Miranda Richardson as Barbara Castle all deliver vivid, moving performances, and Bob Hoskins as a sympathetic male union offi cial is thoroughly charming. Kenneth Cranham also makes a wonderfully slimy villain of the piece. I also especially enjoyed the relationship between the protagonist and her essentially decent but occasionally narky husband, played by Daniel Mays.I would have liked a little more in the way of grit and a little less sentimentality from the fi lm, though some of the detail of the day-to-day business of being on

FILM REVIEW

strike and having to take a free caulifl ower to make dinner with was nicely painted. The beauty and bureaucracy of the union system is also perfectly captured. The fi lm cast Barbara Castle as a bit of a hero, which I’m not sure is accurate, but I was very convinced that the spirit of the women striking was very faithful to how it was – there are interviews with some of the real women involved over the credits, which were to me the most aff ecting part of the fi lm - far more touching than close-ups of Sally Hawkins crying.This fi lm is a beautiful portrayal of the beginnings of a movement still very much in progress – only last Friday the government failed to pass proposed legislation to force big business to conduct audits

on gender pay discrepancies, and women are currently paid 16.4% less than men across the board for full time work. The fi lm shows how far we’ve come as a society in terms of equality but also how far we still have to go – as one of the characters says,

“Rights, not privileges. It’s not diffi cult.”Made in Dagenham is an accessible and moving account of how we, as a society, addressed a great unfairness, and as such I wholeheartedly recommend it.
