THE HEN AND THE EGGS
LADYBIRD LADYBIRD, a movie you can also find here in the VHS standard [[ASIN:6303560555 Ladybird Ladybird]], earned two awards at the 1994 Berlin Film festival. The whole filmography of director Ken Loach is composed of social or political movies and this corpus is one of the most interesting filmographies of the recent British cinematic production. <

>With this film, Ken Loach's intentions are clear, the director wants to denounce how social services and justice handle the case of so-called unfit mothers in Great Britain. I personally didn't know that justice could break the legal bond between a mother and her children and deny her the right to ever see them again. As a human being, this regulation shocks me even if I'm aware that it's often better to move away the children in peculiar cases. In the dramatic situation exposed by Ken Loach, the obvious thing to do is to force the mother to undergo a psychological treatment. Any other solution can only worsen the situation. <

>But don't be afraid, LADYBIRD LADYBIRD is not at all a TV documentary film because Ken Loach is also a talented director who knows how to harpoon the audience. Just think about the scene of the biscuits when Maggie and Jorge must receive in the British manner numerous social workers and keep quiet in front of them while they're in fact boiling. That's great cinema. <
