More quotes by Ken Loach
One lesson to learn is that the press and the broadcasters are not neutral. And it seems we have to learn it each time there is a dispute: they are actually committed to one side.
Ken Loach
Shaping it is something I would expect to do together with a writer, because that's a director's job.
Ken Loach
No political politicians on the board and stop sub-contracting anyway, which means getting out of Iraq. If anything needs to be policed, it needs to be done through a proper international body... not through us sub-contracting teams of mercenaries.
Ken Loach
You'll get unsociable people whatever the nationality, colour, race or creed. I guess the British abroad have probably got the worst record of anyone.
Ken Loach
History is contemporary. Your understanding of history confirms what you think of the present. It's not neutral. I would be very surprised if people with a different view of the present, don't take issue with my view of the past. I just hope that people deal with the content of the film.
Ken Loach
A film is one small voice among other large ones. The film is a tiny part of the discourse. You do what you can but under no illusions of what a film can do.
Ken Loach
A movie isn't a political movement, a party or even an article. It's just a film. At best it can add its voice to public outrage.
Ken Loach
Maybe if we tell the truth about the past, we can tell the truth about the present.
Ken Loach
