Review of I, Daniel Blake (2016) by Jacinta W — 31 Oct 2016
Very fine film showing the bureaucratic operations of the British Welfare System - DWP - Dept. of Work & Pensions. Fine acting by Dave Johns as the carpenter seeking disability payments after a heart attack, and Hayley Squires as the single parent seeking affordable accommodation for herself & her 2 children.
The scene in the Food Bank with a starving woman is taken from real life. Having worked in the welfare area for over 20 years, this is the most authentic portrayal of real life, that you will ever see on screen.
Brilliant. Must See.
