In this dramatic and poignant speech-like reply to an interview question [between 3:11 - 6:00] the Welsh actor talks about his miner father's unique relationship with The Great Atlantic Fault (or "dark artery"): a famous coal seam that "starts in the north of Spain and goes under The Bay of Biscay and comes up in northern Wales then goes under The Atlantic and comes up in Pennsylvania."
Everything he has to say is as compelling as any political speech or piece of writing. Even more so because it's dense with authentic feeling.
(But just in case...Here's the equivalent on paper: George Orwell, "Down the Mine.")
