THE FULL MONTY (R) A bunch of unemployed, un-buff English blokes strip to their Skivvies -- and beyond -- to make a bit of money and rescue their pride (?!) in this ingratiating bit of malarkey. The comic moments are winning, but they're infected with a kind of laughing-through-adversity pathos that makes you feel cheap for encouraging all the prancing. Strong performances by Robert Carlyle, as the strippers' ringleader, and Tom Wil-kinson, as a middle manager afraid to tell his wife he's been canned. B
