    Sally Hawkins and other leading and supporting characters accurately restored this important historical event with wonderful group acting skills, raising the standard of the film to a new level. The director carried the retro style throughout, successfully restored the background of the times, and the narrative flowed smoothly, allowing the audience to fully understand the sadness and tears hidden behind all the successes, which played a remarkable inspirational effect....

    after#Iron Lady# became interested in pieces of real-life political themes. The uncommon title of this film is about the story of female workers on strike to fight for equal pay for equal work. The tone of this film is light and nostalgic, and the red dress only appears in the key link, which is dazzling and dazzling. Well, it is time for this woman to take the lead. I don't know what brand of clothing is in the film, so take a good look at it! Also look forward to a piece of paper on the...

    You can get it if you really want it. Based on the historical fact that the female mechanics at Ford Company went on strike for equal pay in the 1960s. The road of feminism started too late and is still faltering. Personally, I think the warning effect of the film is greater than the inspirational effect, because until today, women have not been able to achieve true equal pay for equal...

    In 1968, 178 women workers at Ford's Dagenham plant went on strike, and they finally won equal pay for men and women. They won, and I think two factors are inseparable. First, the Labour Party, which represents the working class, is in power; second, the trade unions stand on the side of the workers and fight for their...

    That's as it should be!

    Made in Dagenham, produced by the BBC. In 1968, women workers at the Ford Motor Plant in England demanded equal pay for equal pay. There are no handsome men or beauties, no exciting plot, but quite good-looking. Each character has a distinct personality. Rita, who is ordinary and simple, but tough...

    about women

    Every time I see a British film, I am overjoyed.

    This one has a theme that I like.
    A group of female workers, how to wake up and fight for their own interests.
    It turned out to be just a penniless female worker. Accidental events made her extraordinary.
    Even if you choose this unusual path, you...

Made in Dagenham quotes

  • [Albert is being accused by his union of scuppering other negotiations with management by supporting the women's equal-pay strike]

    Bartholomew: As a union we have to remember who comes first. The Communist Party. And Marx himself said "Men write their own history". That's "men", Albert.

    Albert Passingham: But didn't he also say "Progress can be measured by the social position of the female sex"? Or was that a different Marx? That was Groucho, was it?

    [Bartholomew is lost for words]

    Albert Passingham: Equal pay across the board. You telling me that ain't worth fighting for? Of course it is, and you know it. I'll tell you something. This Rita has got a bigger set of balls than you three put together. And she ain't scared to lay 'em on the line, neither. And I for one am gonna help her. And if you are what you say you are, an organisation pledged to support its members, then you'll get off your lazy fat arses and you'll help her too. Good fucking evening.

    [Albert walks out of the office]

  • [Rita gives an impromptu speech at the trade union conference]

    Rita O'Grady: My best friend lost her husband recently. He was a gunner in the 50 Squadron in the RAF. Got shot down one time, on a raid to Essen. And even though he was badly injured, he managed to bail out. I asked him why he joined the RAF, and he said "Well, they've got the best women, haven't they?"

    [audience laughs]

    Rita O'Grady: And then he said "Well, you've got to do something, haven't you? You had to do something, that was a given. Cos it was a matter of principle. You had to stand up. You had to do what was right. Cos otherwise you wouldn't be able to look at yourself in the mirror." When did that change, eh? When did we, in this country, decide to stop fighting? I don't think we ever did. But you've got to back us up. You've got to stand up with us. *We* are the working classes - the men *and* the women. We're not separated by sex, but only by those who are willing to accept injustice and those like our friend George who are prepared to go into battle for what is right. And equal pay for women *is* right.
