JIMMY’S HALL – A STORY OF LOVE AND FREEDOM ‘
E ‘always him, incorrigible. Ken Loach, Ken red, the most radical of contemporary directors, stubbornly continues to face a cinema ‘political’ but in the highest sense of the term and less dogmatic . And if it makes the center even when he took refuge in the play, see ‘Looking for Eric’ or ‘The part of the angels’, let alone when he returns to face the issues that most in the ropes: those of social injustice, inequality, the oppressed , the exploited, of those words that are perpetually on the other side of the fence. With ‘Jimmy’s hall – A story of love and freedom’, presented in competition at Cannes, Loach is back in Ireland twenties brink of civil war, in short, before the events of ‘The Wind That Shakes the ‘grass’ which earned him the Golden Palm in 2006, telling the true story of Jimmy Gralton, only Irish to be expelled from his country without due process becaus e “communist”.
We are in 1921 when Jimmy builds a ballroom in the countryside where young people can go to study, discuss, dream and, of course, have fun . Day after day, the place becomes increasingly crowded and popular, until his fame meeting of socialists and freethinkers comes to the ears of the Church and politicians, which eventually forced to flee to America and Jimmy the ballroom to close. Ten years later, returns to take care of his mother, decided to lead a quiet life. The ballroom is always there but abandoned. Over time, touching hands with poverty and cultural oppression that plague his community, the activist in him takes over deciding to reopen the local, cost what it may. And it will cost him little.
Supported by the perfect script, Paul Laverty, highlighting the absurdity of one of the oppressor and a Church smug, pompous and repressive beyond all limits, Loach celebrates a community of People who live and play in the name of a higher cause . Politics and entertainment are never easy to mix a blend, but ‘Jimmy’s lobby’ the miracle: an unusual story, vivid and intelligent that leaves us, despite the bitter end, with an exciting sense of joy and hope. A film also moving because everything is played with great lightness, as the romance between Jimmy and Oonah that can be summarized in a scene where they dance alone, illuminated by the light of the moon, which underlies an extraordinary eroticism.
And it is absolutely true, as someone wrote, that for at least an hour and a half, its duration, this film even manages to reconcile with communism . Between music, dancing and a glass of red wine.

The Ham says Coldiretti, can now also be done using meat from other species by creating confusion among consumers about the actual content of the product they buy. One possibility that, as demonstrated by the recent investigation, in Europe, on horse meat passed off as beef in sauce and meatballs, also feeds the risk of fraud in an area such as the meat where the beginning of the crisis in 2008 to the present are seizures increased by 150% according to the data of the Carabinieri Nas in the first nine months of 2014 over the same period of 2008 to a value of no less than 92 million euro. Fraud as that which saw the Prosecutor of Turin close an investigation that investigation involves 28 people for conspiracy to commit fraud on the market and for the fake meats sold as organic, but in reality from the treatment of pigs raised in a conventional manner. In particular, it adds Coldiretti, with the decree revising the legislation on cold cuts, increases the water content allowed to be paid by the buyers as if it had meat in a time of severe economic crisis. The increase in humidity expected for the three categories of ham, cooked ham and cooked ham chosen high quality will “undermine the quality of the product itself at the expense of Italian pork, the meat of which have a higher quality than those of pigs imported from northern countries, penalizing our farmers. ”
