An Arrogant and Reckless Young Man Meets His Match
10 May 2021
"Arthur Seaton" (Albert Finney) is an arrogant and reckless young man who works in a factory and has little regard for anybody but himself. In short, he's not a very likeable person. To that extent, he not only lives with his parents but also has a complete disdain for marriage and essentially lives for the weekend. So when he's not getting drunk with what few friends he has he's spending the rest of his time with a married woman named "Brenda" (Rachel Roberts) whose husband "Jack" (Bryan Pringle) works with him. Then, to make matters even more complicated, one day Arthur meets an attractive young woman by the name of "Doreen" (Shirley Ann Field) and things quickly spiral out of control from that point on. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an okay film for the most part but in all honesty, since I didn't care much for any of the characters, it was difficult for me to really enjoy this film to any great degree and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.
