abstract:My Name Is Joe is a 1998 Scottish film directed by Ken Loach. The film stars Peter Mullan as Joe Kavanagh, an unemployed recovering alcoholic in Glasgow who meets and falls in love with a health visitor.
Be that as it may, Mr. Mullan, who played the title role in Ken Loach's "My NameIsJoe, " evokes a nightmare world of sadistic nuns and predatory priests, a world in which religious tenets have been twisted into pitiless tyranny.
