"This is a film that inspired me very much; I think it influenced me a lot as a filmmaker," said Miller, while Day-Lewis added, "Ken Loach seems like the ultimate humanist. And his politics are really entirely born from this absolute love and identification for the people that he’s telling these stories about."
