Guest Len B'stard Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 One the true geniuses of cinema. Really really really love Ken Loach. Cathy Come Home is fucking exceptional. Everybody gives it about their film changing the world or society, Cathy Come Home actually had a direct effect on the way Social Services did their business. Kes is fuckin' brilliant too, i just love Loach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just made to watch them at school and wrote essays about it at school. wrote essays about it. but somehow I managed to do one about Bond to wriggle out of it and Powell and Pressberger.Mike Leigh is the one I got into.

durruti column Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) Mike Leigh is the one I got into.you're right. mike leigh, ken loach and the dardenne brothers are the three big names who renewed the social cinema in europe in the last 25 years.
