* AmateurCast: Loach is known for only or mostly working with actors who are unknowns. He makes films about socially conscious issues and always from the viewpoint of the underdogs in society and feels that Hollywood stars can never portray such parts convincingly. Thus he casts real people in roles that are close to their own background. That way they can give performances based on experience.

Kenneth Charles Loach (born June, 17 1936) is an English filmmaker who made a string of socialist realist masterpieces. He is an ardent critic of the capitalist system interested in the plight of the poor and oppressed.
He first became acclaimed in the late [[TheSixties 1960s]], with his early masterpiece ''Kes''. Early in TheSeventies he followed it with the cruel KitchenSinkDrama ''Family Life''. Loach continued going on strong in the '90s, 2000s, and 2010s with a string of positively-received films.
He is a two-time winner of the UsefulNotes/PalmeDOr earning both prizes already in the new century.
