It Always Rains on Sunday

AroView: An overlooked masterpiece of British crime noir which blends kitchen sink realism with the poetic sensibilities of 30’s French cinema.

An escaped convict hides out in his ex-lover’s family bomb shelter, disrupting her claustrophobic domesticity, while a detective closes in on him. Full of satisfying subplots and subtexts, it weave a rich tapestry of life in WWII-ravaged East End London. Based on the novel by Arthur La Bern.
