Dogs on the leash


Ken Loach has done quite a lot of these movies where a working class family copes with the perfect yet brutal everydayness. Ricky is a delivery driver and Abbie is a home care nurse, both working 14 hours a day to feed their children and make do. It's all hardship. Great emotional drama.

It's awfully easy to lie

A brilliantly contradictory, suggestive, yet still quite gentle film.  A simple love story but seasoned with all the elements of humanity.  ...
