Breaking Glass

Gigi PNNov 16, 2022

I first saw "Breaking Glass" when it was released in England in 1980..I loved it then and having just caught it in August 2005 on a Canadian station it still is great. The only thing I regret is I can't find the sound track or the DVD in the stores??...anyone care to shed some light or must I order it from some over priced internet company. But getting back to the film the music stands up to the test of time, Hazel/Kate had something to say about 80's Britain..actually it was the same decade I moved to Canada for some of the same reasons one being "Thatcher" and what she was doing to the country at the time. Please if you get the chance watch this movie you won't be sorry!

Hazel O'Connor is excellent and the movie is much more than just a musical. It reflects society as it was in the 'Thatcherite' era with it's excesses and prejudices. The storyline is believable and despite the low production cost, comes across very well. I would commend it to anyone. Hope that it is re-released on DVD.

I first came to breaking glass some years ago after having heard a track from the film. When I first watched it I thought it was shocking but after coming back to it years later I can see so much more in it. It's a truly excellent film depicting life in Thatcher's Britain as well as a wry view of the music industry. Hazel O'Conner is underrated in my view but she does excel here. Excellent film and even better soundtrack.

Low budget Brit pop melodrama focuses on a girl who wants to be a star, becomes one and then finds it all a bit too much. Good cast and a sense of time and place cannot hide the fact that we have all been here before. Several scenes are a bit hysterical and O'Connor's voice sounds a lot like Mini Mouse! She disappeared from sight soon after making this movie - so life can imitated art! A must see if you want to see a punk version of a Star Is Born though.

I acquired this, one of my all-time favourite films on DVD recently and as usual, during viewing, the whole thing just blew me away. I am a massive fan of Hazel O'Connor and the soundtrack to this film just has me in tears, especially the "Will You" track. It's a pure nostalgia trip for me back to my youth. This rates second best to Quadrophenia (which also starred Phil Daniels). A great soundtrack and a great view of Britain in the Thatcherite years of the grim 80's in which I grew up. The ending is so sad, for hours after the end of the film I am like a blubbering baby. I expect to wear out this DVD from repeated viewing, I can watch it over and over again and never be bored, simply for the soundtrack alone. Hazel, sorry to hear about your dad darling. God Bless you all. xx

One of my best films ever, maybe because i was well into the punk scene in the late 70s and went to many of hazels concerts, but the film was a good story line and very good acting by hazel and a up and coming Phil Daniels not sure about his latest project Eastenders !! excellent performance by lots of unknown actors who if you keep your eyes peeled will see them in many of the UK soaps today exp: Carver out of the Bill, the more i watch it the more of them i spot, well if you have not seen it yet have a night in with the video, don't forget to dig out the safety pin for your nose and heavy black eye makeup and shave your head Mochanian style....Enjoy

I don't understand why this film is so underrated. Hazel O'Connor's performance is breathtaking. She wrote all the songs in just over a week!!! She says she is not a musician, I beg to differ Ms O'Connor. You are a very gifted musician. She has so much to offer the role - the casting director nailed it. I wish this was readily available to watch on Prime. So many are missing out. Phil Daniels was perfect casting too. Together their story broke my heart. He has a vulnerability that's captivating. The rest of the casting was spot on too. It's not like watching a film, it's like having access to a real life story happening right in front of you. Seeing how fame can be so destructive in a time when politically speaking everything was on the Up! NOT EVERYTHING EH! IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THIS FILM - WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!
