‘—– Winner of 1 Academy Award —– The Full Monty – Robert Carlyle (1997) 15

Description

This hugely successful British comedy was a hit both in its homeland and the States. After witnessing the hysteria created by visiting strippers The Chippendales, unemployed Sheffield steelworker Gaz (Robert Carlyle) hatches a plan to make his fortune. Along with pal Dave (Mark Addy), he forms a strip act made up of a mixed bunch including depressed security guard Lomper and their former foreman, Gerald (Tom Wilkinson), a ballroom dancer and now also unemployed, who they persuade to choreograph the group.

Once they have practiced their routine they set out to reclaim their dignity by going ‘the full monty’ in their act.
