In 1999, Steven Soderbergh pushed his formal experimentation even further, rendering a straightforward revenge tale into a modernist masterpiece. In the process, the Terence Stamp/Peter Fonda joint THE LIMEY examines memory, the legacy of the 60s, and inaugurates Sodie's obsession with Cockney rhyming slang.

Spéciale Ken Loach à l'occasion de la rétrospective à la Cinematek à Bruxelles en avril et mai. On en parle avec Dick Tomasovic, chargé de cours en histoire et esthétique du cinéma et des arts du spectacle à l'ULg. Le cinéma anglais a connu, à l'image de la Nouvelle Vague française, un tournant radical qui entendait dynamiter un cinéma sclérosé en traitant les sujets critiques de l'époque par un engagement social qui ramenait le cinéma au plus proche du peuple. Les Angry Young Men, emmenés par Lindsay Anderson et Karel Reisz, ont laissé un héritage dont Ken Loach en particulier s'est saisi à la fin de la décennie, pour à son tour porter un regard sur la réalité mû par le même souci d'engagement social que ses prédécesseurs.

Le 1er janvier 2025 sortait Bird, le dernier film de la réalisatrice britannique Andrea Arnold. Un film qui poursuit sa veine de réalisme social, tout en s'aventurant du côté de l'onirisme. Alors, la sortie de Bird nous a donné envie de nous réunir pour parler de la carrière d'Andrea Arnold, figure de proue du cinéma indépendant britannique, héritière du naturalisme de Ken Loach, et aussi grande passionnée des images de la nature.Chapitrage :05:37 : Red Road (2006)17:55 : Fish Tank (2009)37:39 : Les Hauts de Hurlevent (2011)56:31 : Bird (2025)Animation, réalisation, montage, son : Mariana AgierParticipantes : Alicia Arpaïa, Mariana Agier, Léon Cattan, Lisa DurandGénérique : © SorocinéMusique : © Antonin Agier et Hugo CardonaPhoto : © RankinHébergé par Ausha.

durée : 00:03:23 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - D'outre-Manche nous parvient toujours un nombre certain de drames sociaux dans la grande tradition de Charles Dickens et Ken Loach : ont-ils encore de la force pour nous émouvoir et nous mobiliser ?

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 127 - Adrien Brody - Actor Actor Adrien Brody (THE BRUTALIST, SUMMER OF SAM, THE PIANIST) joins us in this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast. We worked with Adrien on THE VILLAGE, and it was great catching up with him. Early in our sprawling conversation about his career and his craft, we discuss what he learned as a young actor working with directors of great caliber—from Juan José Campanella (Season 2, Episode 80) to Spike Lee and Ken Loach—that led to his lauded performance in THE PIANIST. Later in our discussion of THE BRUTALIST, Adrien reflects on his collaboration with director Brady Corbet and shares what his first concern as a performer was when told the film would be shot on loud VistaVision cameras, and Adrien reveals the personal family history that informed his moving performance and shares how he and his fellow filmmakers pulled the film off with relatively limited resources. Towards the end our conversation, we also consider actors' and cinematographers' reliance on others to reach creative fulfillment, and we ask Adrien if he thinks it's possible to learn how to act. Plus, Adrien explains how to jury-rig a polaroid camera battery into a makeshift hand warmer. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
The Old Oak will be Ken Loach's last feature film and Sharuna Sagar was granted exclusive access behind the scenes of this landmark movie. She joins the 86-year-old director on his swansong as he brings together his loyal team for one last time. As with his previous two films, I, Daniel Blake and Sorry We Missed You, Ken returns to the North East of England, to tell the story of Syrian refugees who have been housed in an ex-mining village. With him are his long-standing partners, producer Rebecca O'Brien and writer Paul Laverty, and they reveal the secrets of Loach's success, with films like Kes, Cathy Come Home and The Wind That Shakes The Barley.

Our introduction to the films of Belgian brothers Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne, La promesse (1996) is, like last week's Le Havre, a story of African migrants in Europe. But where Aki Kaurismäki took a more magical approach, the Dardenne's hew much closer to the intense realism of, say, Ken Loach. The brothers' history in documentary perhaps make it even more intense than what Loach we've seen. It's a story of rejecting what you've been told is the order the world must work in, and finding the community and care that your heart cries out for. A better world may be illegal, but it remains possible.
Kahleen Crawford started working in casting in 2000, setting up Kahleen Crawford Casting in 2006. She has been casting Ken Loach's films since 2003, including The Old Oak, Sorry We Missed You and I, Daniel Blake. Kahleen's other recent feature film credits include All of us Strangers directed by Andrew Haigh, for which she received a nomination for Best Casting at the 2024 BAFTA Film awards, The Outrun (dir: Nora Fingscheidt) starring Saoirse Ronan, Living directed by Oliver Hermanus, Maggie Gyllenhaal's directorial debut The Lost Daughter, and Harry Wootliff's first and second features Only You and True Things About Me. Recent television includes BBC/Showtime series The Woman In The Wall, two series of The Buccaneers for Apple Television, two series of Kudos/BBC's SAS: Rogue Heroes, two series of Screw (C4), two series of World Productions' thriller Vigil (BBC), Andrew Haigh's The North Water (BBC/AMC), two series of Sky Atlantic drama I Hate Suzie created by Billie Piper and Lucy Prebble, and all three series of BBC/HBO series His Dark Materials. Kahleen has recently completed casting on feature film Pillion for director Harry Lighton, Queen At Sea for director Lance Hammer, with Tom Courtenay, Juliette Binoche, and Anna Calder-Marshall, and All of You directed by William Bridges, starring Brett Goldstein and Imogen Poots.

Add Danny Boyle to the long list of British directors who claim their work is apolitical, seemingly only to distance themselves from Ken Loach and Mike Leigh. But it doesn't take the death of the author to find a political read of his brutal debut feature Shallow Grave (1994), a film about the corrupting influence of money on relationships, about how greed inherently leads to violence and even if you can convince yourself that your extractive profits have no victims, well, they soon will. Kerry Fox, Christopher Eccleston, and Ewan McGregor star as the victims of their own avarice in this fantastic film.
Paul and Erin review the Tim Burton legacyquel BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE, the grossout Cannes sensation THE SUBSTANCE, the issue-driven actioner REBEL RIDGE and Ken Loach's likely final filim THE OLD OAK, as well as the limited TV series SHOGUN and THE PERFECT COUPLE.
Janez Burger se v svojem filmu Opazovanje (nagrade za najboljšo glavno žensko vlogo, scenografijo in zvok na lanskem Festivalu slovenskega filma) sprašuje o prevzemanju odgovornosti za to, čemur smo na videz »samo« priče; britanski družbeni kritik Ken Loach v Starem hrastu poziva k sočutju in resnični solidarnosti do tistih, ki imajo v življenju manj sreče.

Director and actor Simon McBurney, one of the founders of the ground breaking theatre company Complicité, reveals his creative inspirations and influences. For over four decades McBurney has created innovative and experimental works, from immersive staging to the reinvention of classic texts. His works include A Disappearing Number, The Encounter and Mnemonic, a landmark production which has been recently revived at The National Theatre. Simon McBurney tells John Wilson about his childhood in Cambridge where his father, an archaeologist, helped foster an early fascination with time and memory. For This Cultural Life he chooses the 1969 Ken Loach film Kes as a formative influence, offering an insight to a childhood very different to his own middle class upbringing. He recalls seeing the band The Clash whilst at Cambridge University, an experience that had a profound impact on his own creativity and political engagement through the arts. He also chooses the writer and critic John Berger as an inspirational figure, and recalls collaborating with Berger on the immersive Artangel project The Vertical Line in 1999. Simon McBurney also describes how the experience of meeting indigenous Amazonian people inspired his 2016 Complicité show The Encounter.

In another long-overdue episode, Dhruv welcomes Sanket back to discuss two underseen films (both premiered at Cannes but got lost in the mix) that provide a depressing diagnosis of Europe and England's rapidly multiplying racism and xenophobia. Ken Loach's "The Old Oak" (2023) provides potential solutions to it; Cristian Mungiu's "R.M.N." (2022) leaves the decision up to us. Listen to the full episode for a spoiler-filled discussion on the uncanny thematic similarities between these two films, the tonal differences that make them unique, and other films of a similar ilk that tackle politically charged subject matter in similarly explosive and nuanced ways.

Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode explore whether films and TV can change the world.First up, Ellen talks to the award-winning independent filmmaker Eliza Hittman, whose critically acclaimed 2020 drama, Never Rarely Sometimes Always, charts the odyssey of 17 year-old Autumn, played by newcomer Sidney Flanigan from her home town in rural Pennsylvania, to her nearest accessible abortion clinic in New York City. Ellen also meets Caren Spruch, National Director for Arts and Entertainment Engagement at US-based organisation Planned Parenthood. They discuss her activism towards shaping TV and film storylines around abortion. Mark ponders how two film makers have addressed homelessness in their work - rising star Lorna Tucker who's deeply personal documentary Someone's Daughter, Someone's Son has recently brought homelessness back into the spotlight, and film legend Ken Loach who shares how his 1966 BBC TV play Cathy Come Home came to be and alerted the public and politicians alike to the country's growing housing crisis.

In this episode, Brit, Sam, Cork, and Peaches look at another red card from a center back as they review the 1-1 draw against Vancouver, a screening of the film Looking for Eric at Film Forum, and the upcoming match against Inter Miami
It's a classic case of head versus heart as Ian and David take on The Old Oak!The guys have very different takes on the (purported) final film by esteemed director Ken Loach, in which a young Syrian refugee named Yara (Ebla Mari) and her family move into an impoverished Northern England former mining town in 2016. Yara befriends TJ (Dave Turner), the owner of the titular pub, who is caught between loyalty to his xenophobic friends/patrons and the instinct to look out for these new, well-meaning strangers.In this spoilerific discussion, Ian and David dig into Loach and screenwriter Paul Laverty's effective use of acting, aesthetics, and mood in crafting their sympathetic, pro-immigrant "message movie"--one that paints all attendant concerns about numbers, culture, and economics as strictly the domain of alcoholic racist idiots.Is this, as the filmmakers likely thought of it, "the movie we need right now"? Or is it a polemic disguised as a (very well executed) slice-of-life drama?Pull up a stool, pour yourself a drink, and find out!Subscribe, like, and comment to the Kicking the Seat YouTube channel, and check out kickseat.com for multiple movie podcasts each week!Show LinksWatch the Old Oak trailer.As mentioned in the show, The 11th Chicago Critics Film Festival kicks off this Friday (May 3rd) at the Music Box Theatre.

Eight movie reviews this week from Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy include both surprises and disappointments. Steve checks out a new crime film with Scoot McNairy and Kit Harington (Blood for Dust) and Erik goes to space briefly with the new IMAX short (Deep Sky). There are some lovely films to find including the latest and possibly last from Ken Loach (The Old Oak) and a tale of childhood set amidst the former Cabrini Green housing project in Chicago (We Grown Now). A pair of part twos are out there but who made out better, Steve (The Three Musketeers – Part 2: Milady) or Erik (Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver). Finally, Guy Ritchie releases his third film in 13 months (The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare) and the Radio Silence duo goes back to mayhem in gothic houses with the vampire tale (Abigail). 0:00 - Intro 1:46 - Blood for Dust 8:51 - Deep Sky 15:09 – The Three Musketeers - Part 2: Milady 20:23 - We Grown Now 28:40 – The Old Oak 36:02 - Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver 48:08 – The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare 58:49 - Abigail 1:12:02 - Outro

CW: This episode discusses cinematic sexual violence. The founder of Fun City Editions, Jonathan Hertzberg, joins the podcast from New York City to discuss the boutique video label and their latest blu-ray release, 1983's Deep in the Heart, aka Handgun, directed by Ken Loach's longtime English producer Tony Garnett. Deep in the Heart, a brutal portrayal of American gun culture as seen from an outsider's perspective, stars the undersung actress Karen Young in her screen debut as a Boston schoolteacher working in Dallas who is groomed and then sexually assaulted by a well-liked local attorney and antique gun collector. She gets nowhere trying to get the police and the church to support her quest for justice, but gets all the help she needs from the local gun club, and transformed by the culture and her experience, plans her revenge. The film was bought by Warner Bros. not to release the film properly, but to keep it from interfering with the commercial prospects of their upcoming Clint Eastwood release with a similar theme, Sudden Impact. Deep in the Heart is the kind of film this label specializes in: films that have for various reasons been forgotten in the modern age but deserve to be restored, reissued and rediscovered. Jonathan gives us insight into the process and the challenges of locating and reviving these catalogue titles, and how Deep in the Heart still speaks to contemporary American concerns over 40 years later.

Ken discusses his latest (and final) film “The Old Oak,” his approach to storytelling, working with non-professional actors, and the issues he is concerned about today, from the rise of poverty in modern Britain, to Gaza and climate change. In a wide-ranging conversation, Loach delves into his vast body of work, including “Kes,” “Cathy Come Home,” “Riff Raff,” “Raining Stones,” “Land and Freedom,” and “Ladybird, Ladybird,” where he describes being “overwhelmed” by the performance of Liverpool actress Crissy Rock. He also talks about making iconic 1968 drama documentary “The Golden Vision” about Everton FC, its supporters, and center forward Alex Young. Additionally, Ken and Nev break down the similarities between making a film and creating a winning team on the football pitch.

Ken Loach is one of the greatest film directors of all time and a true British icon. He is known for his powerful, socially engaged films including ‘I Daniel Blake', which won him a BAFTA for outstanding British film. At 87 years old, Ken's career spans nearly six decades and his long list of awards includes the first ever British Independent Film Award and the Palme d'Or at the Cannes film festival, which he has won twice.His films shine a light on real human stories and the social injustices of working class lives. From Kes about a bullied and abused working class boy who trains his kestrel, to The Wind That Shakes The Barley which stars Cillian Murphy fighting for Irish independence, to his most recent film, The Old Oak set in an old mining community in the north east of england, where syrian refugees are being homed. In the 60s and 70s some of his work was considered controversial and added to conversations around homelessness, abortion, poverty and much more. In the 80s some of his work was banned. In this illuminating episode, as well as sharing his biggest life changes, Ken discusses whether films can create change, his early life, starting out as a director at the BBC “rattling a few cages”, the social issues highlighted in his films, struggling to retire and what you can do to help change the world.

Cillian Murphy has received global acclaim for his performance in the title role of Christopher Nolan's epic film Oppenheimer. He has been nominated for an Oscar, which follows the best actor award he picked up at this year's Golden Globes. On the small screen he played the Birmingham gangster Thomas Shelby for a decade in the BAFTA-winning Peaky Blinders, which made him a household name. Cillian was born in Cork in 1976 and initially music was his creative outlet. His band Sons of Mr Green Genes, which he formed with his younger brother, was offered a five album record deal, but the boys' parents thought his brother was too young and vetoed a career in music.Cillian changed tack and in 1996 was cast as Pig in Enda Walsh's play Disco Pigs, reprising the role in a film version in 2001. His breakthrough film role came playing Jim the bicycle courier in Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later in 2002 which he followed up with a starring role in Ken Loach's the Wind that Shakes the Barley. In 2005 he played Dr Jonathan Crane - Scarecrow - in Christopher Nolan's film Batman Begins, which was the start of their continuing creative collaboration.Cillian lives in Ireland with his wife, the artist Yvonne McGuinness, and their two sons.

It's another jam-packed episode of the Empire Podcast this week, as Chris Hewitt chats to three very different directors, and learns a lot about them (and himself) along the way. First up is John Carney, the Irish director of ultra-charming musical comedy-dramas like Sing Street and his new movie, Flora & Son, who tells Chris all about his first guitar, focusing on his childhood, and directing Eve Hewson in the title role. Then Gareth Edwards, who makes a triumphant return this week with new sci-fi The Creator some seven years after his bruising experience directing Rogue One, sits down with Chris for a natter about opening weekends, and forging the right creative path. And last but not least, Chris talks caps (financial and sartorial) with Craig Gillespie, director of Dumb Money. Then, in the virtual podbooth, Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer for a fun episode in which they talk about the movie they've seen most often in the last ten years; discuss actual movie news in the week that the Writers' Strike finally got resolved; and review Saw X, No One Will Save You, The Creator, and The Old Oak, which is reportedly the last film for the legendary Ken Loach. Oh, and James declares war on a badger. Enjoy.

Veteran British film director Ken Loach nominates the 17th century radical pamphleteer and and leader of the Diggers, Gerrard Winstanley. Born in Wigan in 1609, Winstanley began writing religious pamphlets after his cloth selling business in London went bankrupt and he was forced to move to the country. There his 'heart was filled with sweet thoughts ... that the earth shall be made a common treasury of livelihood to all mankind', for 'the great Creator Reason, made the Earth to be a Common Treasury... for Man had Domination given to him, over the Beasts, Birds and Fishes; but not one word was spoken in the beginning, that one branch of mankind should rule over another." Winstanley began to dig a nearby wasteland, calling on others - rich and poor -to join him in the digging, which he believed would start a revolution and feed the poor. His ideas were radical, communal, spiritual and deeply challenging. Within a year the Diggers had been aggressively expelled from their site of occupation. The late Tony Benn called the Diggers, 'the first true socialists', but Winstanley has also been claimed by anarchists and environmentalists.

Six young people from Portugal have filed a lawsuit against 32 governments, including all EU member states, the UK, Norway, Russia, Switzerland and Turkey. They accuse the countries of insufficient action over climate change and failing to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions enough to hit the Paris Agreement target of limiting global warming to 1.5C. It's the first of its kind to be filed at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. We'll hear from a legal advisor about the case. Also in the programme: We hear from Iraq, where fireworks seem to have started a blaze at a wedding party, killing more than 100 people; the filmmaker Ken Loach talks about refugees' rights and his latest film; and the Amateur Gardener magazine, a 140-year-old British instutution, closes down. (Photo shows, Martim, Mariana and Claudia Duarte Agostinho, some of the young people bring the case. Credit: Claudia Duarte Agostinho)
The shooting starts on The Old Oak and Sharuna Sagar is there to witness Ken Loach's unique style of directing. Throughout his career from Kes to The Wind That Shakes The Barley to I, Daniel Blake, the 87-year-old film-maker does not like to tell the cast what is going to happen in the next scene. He explains his reasons, while star Dave Turner reveals what it is like to be surprised every day on set.
The Old Oak will be Ken Loach's last feature film and Sharuna Sagar was granted exclusive access behind the scenes of this landmark movie. She joins the 86 year old director on his swansong as he brings together his loyal team for one last time. As with his previous two films, I, Daniel Blake and Sorry We Missed You, Ken returns to the North East of England, to tell the story of Syrian refugees who have been housed in an ex-mining village. With him are his long-standing partners, producer Rebecca O'Brien and writer Paul Laverty, and they reveal the secrets of Loach's success.
