The film that won the Palme d'Or at Cannes last year over "Tony Erdman" is really good! It is simpler and sharper than the latter. Excellent human works of art must look directly at reality and life in this way, and express humanity, ideals and feelings in an artistic way. Our film industry, which is completely controlled by the entertainment box office, should be...

To understand the reasons for Jia Zhangke's popularity in the West, it is extremely difficult to get a glimpse of a real national image just through movies. Movies can only open up a gap in reality, show the limited reality in front of us, and see a story that is completely different from the grand, profound and dramatic through their living conditions and living conditions. Of course, it is not only the shortcomings of the British welfare system and the plight of the lower working class, but...

Thanks to Ken Lodge for continuing to pay attention to these existences that are obscured by globalization, I think even if I am no longer interested in it, I should maintain a sincere respect. Don't feel that it has nothing to do with you, no one is an island, even an old man with a heart attack in the UK, his distress and hardship, his destiny is also closely linked with each of us. The Palme d'Or at Cannes is well...
I, Daniel Blake Comments

China: Dan, they'll f@ck you around, I'm warning you. Make it as miserable as possible. No accident. That's the plan. I know dozens who have just given up.
Daniel: Well, they've picked the wrong one if they think I'm gonna give up. I'm like a dog with a bone, me, son.

Amanda the Health Care Professional: Good morning, Mr Blake. My name's Amanda. I've got a couple of questions here for you today to establish your eligibility for Employment Support Allowance. It won't take up much of your time. Could I just ask firstly, can you walk more than 50 metres unassisted by any other person?
Daniel: Yes.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Okay... Can you raise either arm as if to put something in your top pocket?
Daniel: I've filled this in already on your 52-page form.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Yeah, I can see that you have but, unfortunately, I couldn't make out what you had said there.
Daniel: Yes.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Can you raise either arm to the top of your head as if you are putting on a hat?
Daniel: I've telt you, there's nowt wrong with me arms and legs.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Could you just answer the question, please.
Daniel: Well, you've got me medical records... Can we just talk about me heart?
Amanda the Health Care Professional: D'you think you could just answer these questions?
Daniel: Okay.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: So was that a yes, that you can put a hat on your head?
Daniel: Yes.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Okay, that's great... Can you press a button such as a telephone keypad?
Daniel: There's nowt wrong with me fingers either... I mean, we're getting farther and farther away from me heart.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: If we could just keep to these questions, thank you... Do you have any significant difficulty conveying a simple message to strangers?
Daniel: Yes. Yes, it's me fucking heart. I'm trying to tell you but you'll not listen.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Mr Blake, if you continue to speak to us like that that's not gonna be very helpful for your assessment... If you could just answer the question, please.
Daniel: Yes.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Okay... Do you ever experience any loss of control leading to extensive evacuation of the bowel?
Daniel: No. But I cannot guarantee there won't be a first if we didn't get to the point.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Can you complete a simple task of setting an alarm clock?
Daniel: Oh, Jesus. Yes... Can I ask you a question? Are you medically qualified?
Amanda the Health Care Professional: I'm a health care professional appointed by the Department of Work and Pensions to carry out assessments for Employment and Support Allowance.
Daniel: But there was a bloke out in the, er, in the waiting room, he says that you work for an American company.
Amanda the Health Care Professional: Our company's been appointed by the Government.
Daniel: Are you a nurse? Are you a doctor?
Amanda the Health Care Professional: I'm a health care professional.
Daniel: Listen, I've had a major heart attack. I nearly fell off the scaffolding. I wanna get back to work, too... Now, please, can we talk about me heart? Forget about me arse, that works a dream.
