Movie Reviews of Saturday Night And Sunday Morning
Movie Review: English New Wave cinema
Summary: 4 Stars
Ok this is a good example of the 1950's-60's genre. It's gritty, real life portrayal of the English Working class post World War II. Also called kitchen sink movies. This is Albert Finney's first starring role & he's very good as Arthur, a young, disaffected man in a dead end mind numbing job in a machine shop in Nottingham. He is too smart for his job, is genial enough, but has a definite mean streak. he takes up with a friend's wife & eventually she gets pregnant by him. He also takes up with a young woman who obviously has marriage on her mind. He navigates through these problems rather poorly. He gets beaten up by sailors for impregnanting their sister. It's obvious the young bird is going to snare him. Good slice of life movie. Almost like a proto-type for Alfie a few years later.
Summary of Saturday Night And Sunday Morning
In his first starring role, Albert Finney gained international acclaim for his impressive (TheNew Yorker) portrayal of Arthur Seaton, a rebellious factory worker who lives only for his wild, carefree nights at the pub. A remarkable and influential drama that captures the despair of working class life, Saturday Night and Sunday Morning is 'superbly enacted [and] one of the best ofBritain's 'angry young men dramas of the 60s. (Leonard Maltin). The sights and sounds of industrial Nottingham resonate with a grimy thud as Arthur Seaton works his tedious factory job. Through ale, women and practical jokes, he vents his frustrations against the establishments of work and marriage until his reckless ways lead him to a night that changes his life. Forced to reevaluate his convictions, Arthur must decide exactly what he stands forArt House & International DVD Video
