Ken Loach's Cinema of Solidarity – The Brooklyn Rail

From Poor Cow (1967) and Kes (1969) to Raining Stones (1993) and My Name is Joe (1998), Loach has elevated the humanity and everyday courage of, in his words, society’s 'nonpersons.” His deceptively simple stories of families and neighborhoods, captured with an unflinching gaze, vibrate with anger.
