Bird

“If ever a film puts its arm round a kid and says: ‘Don’t worry, I’ve got you’, that’s Bird and Bailey. She’s a character you feel [writer/director Andrea] Arnold would lie on railtracks to protect – and that’s a powerful, moving instinct to share.” —Dave Calhoun, Time Out

Blitz

Blitz is a vivid and visceral depiction of life during wartime, a meticulous historical account that resonates unmistakably with our current age of endless war.” —Dennis Lim, Artistic Director, 62nd New York Film Festival

The Cowboy and the Queen

“Nevins and editor/writer Graham Clark put forth a solid foundation for the film cleverly intertwining Roberts’ life with milestones in the Queen’s life, all the while staying true to what brought the improbable pair together: a deep love for horses and perhaps an even greater love for kindness and peace.” —Daily Nexus

A significant percentage of these people have paid their debt by now. Still, it’s the penalties, uncontrolled interest, and the predatory behaviors of loan companies that keep piling upon them. Are the current efforts from the government enough to make a change?
