Saturday Cinema: None but the Lonely Heart

on BBC Two England

Starring Cary Grant, Ethel Barrymore

In this unusual and thought provoking film, adapted from Richard Llewellyn's novel, Cary Grant plays an untypical role as a cockney living in the slums of London. It is the 1930s and he is determined to rise out of his poor environment. But when his mother becomes ill, Ernie finds there are more important things in life.
