“It was another world. u0026quot;u0026#39;t Mill closedu0026quot; doesnu0026#39;t ring much with us today, but it was life and death to the working towns of north England. Gracie plays her usual role as the decent u0026quot;Our Gracieu0026quot; character she really was, and doesnu0026#39;t, as usual, get her man- but she stays ours.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eInteresting film to watch as an almost-documentary: lots of behind-the-action shots of what life was like in that set, at that time of history.”
