Through the main line of Black, we see the helplessness of people when they need help from society when they are old. In this small social assistance station, wherever they go, they will run into a wall. Through his observation in social assistance, Black found that people in need of help Many, the people who apply the "rules" are equally ruthless.

Katie is also deeply hurt by the "rules", which also reflects the greatness of a mother. For the children to have fruit and wear beautiful shoes, she can only bow to herself in the face of the job market, and follow the pyramid of human existence. In other words, people always have to solve their physical needs (food and clothing) first, and Katie even gave up herself to achieve children. Black tries to help them through his own efforts, but his strength is limited.

After reflection, we all need to have savings to face unexpected needs. When we are old, we have no ability to work, and the job market is getting younger. It seems that we can’t tell ourselves to live in the moment, when we can’t afford food,” It's hard to live". Therefore, when you are young, don’t waste your money, you must reserve food in advance, so that people can live with more self-esteem when they are old, and they can live a better life in the present. You must first work hard on your will and work your muscles and bones." Instead of day after day, when you look back, you will be unwilling;

Although the main line of this film reflects social issues, from a single point of view, 40 years old and 70 years old, with or without children, also need to face the oppression and helplessness of life. You need to look down at your feet now, take a step forward, and take a big step forward; #First bittersweet, bittersweet with ideas, sweet with meaning, rather than immersing yourself in hard work and thinking it is right to sit back and enjoy it;

I, Daniel Blake quotes

  • Daniel: She was special. Yeah, she was special, Daisy. Not easy. She was up one minute, down the next. Smart and funny. Huh. Ah, that lass made me laugh. Kind. She had a big, big heart. But... She said her head was like the ocean. Dead still, then wild. Never knew where she'd end up next. I mean, the music helped that. But then she'd hit the rocks. "Where'll we sail to tonight, Dan?" That was our little joke. Her last words to me were, "I wanna sail away, Dan, with the wind at me back."That's all I need, Dan."

  • Daniel: Hello?

    Harry Edwards: Hi, is that Daniel?

    Daniel: Yes, it is. Hi.

    Harry Edwards: Hi, Daniel, it's Harry Edwards here. We spoke the other day at the garden centre...

    Daniel: Oh, yeah, yeah.

    Harry Edwards: ...when you came down and handed your CV. How are you doing, mate? Are you all right?

    Daniel: Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, thanks, yeah.

    Harry Edwards: Er, listen. I tell you what, mate, I've been going through all the CVs I've had handed over the last couple of weeks. And I really like the look of yours. Erm, you've got the experience I'm looking for. I was wondering if you could possibly, er, pop by tomorrow and that for an interview?

    Daniel: Oh... I'm really sorry, er, Mr. Edwards, but, you know, er, my doctor's told us I cannot come back to work yet.

    Harry Edwards: So you're not actually looking for work, then?

    Daniel: Well, it's hard to explain, you know.

    Harry Edwards: So, well, what's the point of handing in your CV if you're not looking for work?

    Daniel: Well it's the only way I can get me benefits, you know?

    Harry Edwards: Benefits? So you prefer to be on benefits than do a day's graft? You know, I thought you were a genuine bloke. You know, I've spent a lot of time going through them all. I've... I was gonna put some graft your way. You've just wasted my time completely. Why don't you just sod right off!

    Daniel: Listen, that's not...
