Michel Gondry talks about this magnificent scene from "Kes" (1969, Loach): "With Ken Loach, it's always very social. So, its the middle of England. In the '70s, probably still now, but it was very ravaged by unemployment and poverty. And you see kids when they are 15, they've already registered for unemployment money. So this kid, he finds his passion with his bird, the kestrel. And there is this moment that's magical, and it's a great lesson too. So, at school, he's very invisible. He's completely invisible. And one day, each pupil has to talk about something. And he starts to talk about his bird and suddenly, he shines. He changes because he speaks about something that he loves. This thing is amazing to me. That it's a great illustration about how so many people feel they are lazy, or they are not interested in things. If they find what they love, they would be a different person." (Four Favourites with Michel Gondry, Letterboxd, 2025)
