  • Barry Hines Has Observed: ‘My Political Viewpoint Is the Mainspring of My Work
    Barry Hines has observed: ‘My political viewpoint is the mainspring of my work. It fuels my energy’ (2009: v). Such a comment will not surprise readers of Hines’ novel A Kestrel for a Knave and viewers of its film version Kes (1969). This was the first of many films written by Hines and directed by Ken Loach which include The Price of Coal (BBC, 1977), The Gamekeeper (ATV, 1980) and the feature film Looks and Smiles (1981). Among Hines' other works areThreads (BBC, 1984), his television film about a nuclear strike against Britain, as well as the BBC Plays for TodayBilly's Last Stand (1971), about the coal industry, and Speech Day (1973), about school-leavers. Given this preoccupation with politics as they affect everyday life, and the fact that all of Hines' work is set in his native South Yorkshire among its working-class communities, it seems surprising that none of these plays is about the miners' strike of 1984–5. The Price of Coal, a pair of Plays for Today, is set in 1977; with hindsight it is fittingly prophetic that in the first play, Meet the People, the daubing of Arthur Scargill's name on a wall threatens to disrupt preparations for an impending royal visit to Milton Colliery. The lock-outs and state-sponsored violence against people clamouring for food after the nuclear attack in Threads also appear prescient since the script was completed before the miners' strike began. However, exploration of the unproduced plays collected in Hines' archive reveals that the 1984–5 strike remained a political and dramatic preoccupation of the playwright for over twenty years.

  • Beyond the Dark, Satanic Mills an Ecocritical Reading of a Kestrel for a Knave
    Through the Working Class Ecology and Society Investigated Through the Lens of Labour edited by Silvio Cristiano Beyond the Dark, Satanic Mills An Ecocritical Reading of A Kestrel for a Knave Joanna Dobson (Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield, UK) Abstract Barry Hines’ 1968 novel A Kestrel for a Knave is justly celebrated for its depiction of work- ing-class life in an English mining village. However, false assumptions about the role of ‘nature’ in the working-class experience have led critics to overlook the significance of the bird at the centre of the novel and the descriptions of the surrounding environment. A reading that foregrounds these aspects offers new insights, revealing a prescient anxiety about the way capitalism weakens relationships between human and nonhuman. The book is shown to be ahead of its time in its understanding that human flourishing depends on meaningful connection with the more-than-human world. Keywords Animal studies. Barry Hines. Birds. Ecocriticism. Northern England. Working-class writing. Barry Hines’ much-loved 1968 novel A Kestrel for a Knave tells the story of Billy Casper, a young teenager growing up in a coal mining village in South Yorkshire, and his relationship with a kestrel called Kes. In an af- terword to the Penguin Modern Classics edition of the book, Hines writes that one of the questions he is most frequently asked is how he knows so much about the countryside, since he too grew up in a mining community in the north of England. He goes on: It’s an ignorant question but understandable, because many people still have a vision of the north filled with ‘dark satanic mills’, mines and fac- tories, and not a blade of grass in sight.

August 2013 ABSTRACT From the late 1970s on, as competition intensified, British broadcasters searched for new ways to cover the escalating budgets for top-end drama. A common industry practice, overseas co-productions seems the fitting answer for most broadcasters; for the BBC, however, creating programmes that appeal to both national and international markets could mean being in conflict with its public service ethos. Paradoxes will always be at the heart of an institution that, while pressured to be profitable, also carries a deep-rooted disapproval of commercialism.

  • From in Two Minds to Family Life
    Tony Garnett From In Two Minds to Family Life From In Two Minds to Family Life TONY GARNETT I’ve been asked to say something about the background to the films In Two Minds (1967) and Family Life (1971). It began in the 1950s, in a respectable working-class suburb of Birmingham. I am in the sixth form at a local grammar school. And I fall in love. Like all adolescent love, it was intense and scary and…wonderful. But unlike most adolescent love, this one lasted. Her name was Topsy and she was fifteen. Cut to ten years later. We are living together in a flat in London, we are both actors, and life is going much better than we ever thought it might. I was doing extremely well. When, in your middle twenties, you have your picture on the front of the Radio Times and you’re given the number one dressing room at the Televison Centre, you think: this can’t last. She was doing even better. She had also been on the cover of the Radio Times, in a two-hander she did for the BBC with Dame Edith Evans. Then Tony Richardson asked her to be in The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962), with Tom Courtenay. And Tony was going to Stratford to do a season, and he asked her to join the company, playing number two to Vanessa Redgrave. But John Schlesinger had asked her to play opposite Tom again in the film version of Billy Liar (1963), which was to be shot in the North of England.

  • 44 GRAAT On-Line Issue # 17 Barry Hines's Thatcher Era Screenplays
    GRAAT On-Line issue # 17 Barry Hines’s Thatcher Era Screenplays Sue Vice University of Sheffield The novelist and screenwriter Barry Hines has observed, ‘My political viewpoint is the mainspring of my work. It fuels my energy’.1 Such inspiration and commitment is clear in his best-known work, including the 1968 novel A Kestrel for a Knave , released a year later as the film Kes (Ken Loach, 1969), as well as The Price of Coal , a two-part Play for Today (Ken Loach, 1977). These works appeared before the watershed British election of 1979, which brought Thatcher’s Conservative government to power. Kes , which centres on the limited options facing a teenage boy, is set at a time when Thatcher was shadow education spokesperson. She had been Conservative party leader for two years when The Price of Coal was broadcast, and its portrayal of malaise in the mining industry—the pair of plays contrasts the expense of efforts made to improve the pit in preparation for a royal visit with the cost-conscious safety shortcuts that precipitate a fatal accident—appears with hindsight to foreshadow the Thatcherite policy that destroyed Britain’s mining industry. 2 Indeed, we see in both these early films versions of the concerns with education, class, work, inequality, and the ability of young people to look forward to a sustainable future, that appear most forcefully and polemically in Hines’s Thatcher-era work. In this essay, I will examine the two of Hines’s screenplays that address or make perceptible the effects of Margaret Thatcher’s time as the British 44 prime minister.

  • Biography Ken Loach
    A Biography for Ken Loach Date of Birth : 17 June 1936, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England, UK IMDb Mini Biography by Michael Brooke Unlike virtually all his contemporaries, Ken Loach has never succumbed to the siren call of Hollywood, and it's virtually impossible to imagine his particular brand of British socialist realism translating well to that context. After studying law at St. Peter's College, Oxford, he branched out into the theater, performing with a touring repertory company. This led to television, where in alliance with producer Tony Garnett he produced a series of docudramas, most notably the devastating "Cathy Come Home" episode of "The Wednesday Play" (1964), whose impact was so massive that it led directly to a change in the homeless laws. He made his feature debut Pas de larmes pour Joy (1967) the following year, and with Kes (1969), he produced what is now acclaimed as one of the finest films ever made in Britain. However, the following two decades saw his career in the doldrums with his films poorly distributed (despite the obvious quality of work such as The Gamekeeper (1968) (TV) and Regards et sourires (1981)) and his TV work in some cases never broadcast (most notoriously, his documentaries on the 1984 miners' strike). But he made a spectacular comeback in the 1990s, with a series of award-winning films firmly establishing him in the pantheon of great European directors - his films have always been more popular in mainland Europe than in his native country or the US (where Riff-Raff (1991) was shown with subtitles because of the wide range of dialects).
