It Always Rains on Sunday

An escaped convict (John McCallum) is sheltered by his former mistress (Googie Withers), now the discontented wife of a middle-aged man. "More related to the French postwar films like Such a Pretty Little Beach (see May 18) than the more dynamic Hollywood noirs, It Always Rains on Sunday, with its petty crime, drudgery, and the continued hardships that existed in Britain well after the end of the war, is very much a mirror of its time. It is one of the best films from the tragically short career of Robert Hamer (Kind Hearts and Coronets, Dead of Night)." William K. Everson
