Summary
Googie Withers stars as Rose Sandigate, a Bethnal Green housewife whose Sunday is turned upside down by the re-appearance of an old flame who is now an escaped convict seeking protection from the police. IT ALWAYS RAINS ON SUNDAY shares rare glimpse into life in London's East End post WWII. *"The drama is managed without condescension and with enormous skill." - Peter Bradshaw, **Guardian*** *"Hamer's artful and iconoclastic film mixes a day in the life of a working-class family with a startling prison-break melodrama." - Michael Sragow, **Boston Globe***
