I, Daniel Blake review . This movie won Loach his second Palme d. Maybe, in years to come, this sequence will become as famous as Charlie Chaplin and the edible shoe. But there are no laughs, only horror and anger. I, Daniel Blake: the trailer for Ken Loach. He is a skilled labourer and carpenter in Newcastle who can. All his hard won expertise and knowledge of the world are now valueless. Daniel befriends an angry, lonely single mum from London in a similar situation: Katie, tremendously played by Hayley Squires, who has been relocated to the north- east. Widower Daniel becomes a kindly quasi- grandpa to her two children and a good friend to her. He is witty and wise, with real practical knowledge, but, like Katie, as innocent as a child about the new world of welfare non- provision. On revisiting this movie, I was struck again by its radical plainness and simplicity. Loach is the John Bunyan of cinema; a bringer of parables. It has been said of Loach that he would do without the camera if he could, and that doing- without aesthetic is absolutely right for the unfashionable, uncompromising seriousness of what he has to say. There is humour in his work, but clear and straightforward humour. He and Laverty are utter strangers to the irony and cynicism that are pretty much integral to the language of almost any other kind of cinema. For the first time in his life, Daniel Blake, a fifty-nine-year-old British carpenter, is obliged to apply for welfare after suffering heart problems. Although his doctor has put him on sick leave and told him he mustn't work, he is obliged to go job-hunting or else he'll be.

But even here there is no outright wrongdoing. His neighbours are likable lads with no side to them. As for Daniel and Katie, their friendship is to be ultimately tested by the obvious question of how she could make some serious money if she wanted; the resulting drama is put together with a kind of robust naivety . It is a bit like the bookcase Daniel is putting together: nothing fancy, but conceived with candour, delicacy, and lack of prurience. The labyrinthine nightmare of the system seemed even more painful when I revisited the film this week: a system in which the claimants are told their fate will be settled by the horribly titled . It is a system that is almost deliberately planned to create just those desperate, futile shouting matches in the benefits office that lead to . When Daniel fails the initial test by just a few arbitrarily conceived points, you find yourself thinking, . We can understand it and do something about it.
