Abstract
A sailor (Booth) returns home to find his wife (Windsor) has shacked up with a bus driver who is now raising her baby – of doubtful paternity – as his own. Filmed on location in London’s East End at a time of rapid urban development and social change, the film lovingly explores the lost world of the docklands, warts and all.
Series This talk is part of the Reproduction on Film: Outlaws series.
