Saturday Night and Sunday Morning

Karel Reisz, 1960

Another film - like A Taste of Honey, Up The Junction, Kes and The Man In The White Suit - that has me marvelling at smoky mid-century Britain.

'I want a new house, one with a bathroom and everything,' says Doreen.

No cows, but this is definitely the first movie I've seen with moorhens. Not that they appear on screen, but the scene at the end where Arthur explains why he's seeing Doreen clearly has two moorhen chirrups.

No cows.
