Cinema bosses snub film director Ken Loach over Ritzy strike support

posted in: All News, UK | 0

The Picturehouse cinema chain has refused to host a benefit showing of award winning film director Ken Loach’s latest film because he supports strikers in the chain’s Ritzy cinema.

Ken Loach, a Palme D’Or winner, is travelling to Cannes, France, to show his new movie  Jimmy’s Hall. No other director has been invited to show their films at the Cannes festival as often as Loach.
