What makes this drab case history into a compassionate and likable film is the rare combination of fresh young talents that Italian-born Producer Joseph Janni (Darling; Far from the Madding Crowd) has recruited from British television. Terence Stamp, 28, is the only member of the company with any movie experience to speak of. John Bindon, 24, is an ex-merchant seaman who has never even acted before. Poor Cow is also the first film for TV Director Kenneth Loach, 30, who has achieved a personal, idiosyncratic immediacy with a hand-held camera and ad-libbed dialogue that sounds natural...
