BIG ISSUE 1567 - THE FULL MONTY RETURNS - ROBERT CARLYLE

$15.00

In 1997, The Full Monty became the highest grossing film in UK history. The film showed the devastating impact of deindustrialisation in Sheffield, but it was a film so full of heart and humour and audacity and hope. Star Robert Carlyle tells The Big Issue this week that the timing of its return is fitting as people again are struggling and the party in power running on empty.
“It seems pretty obvious that people are fed up,” Carlyle says. “We want change. Let’s get away from the selfishness that this government glorifies in and infects people with. Let’s get a new broom and sweep that away.”
