Up The Junction - DVD

Dennis Waterman & Suzy Kendall

1968 Paramount Pictures

Tired of her comfortable life in Chelsea, Polly (Suzy Kendall, TO SIR WITH LOVE) decides to go 'slumming' in Battersea to see how the other half lives. She soon settles into her new digs, gets a job at a factory, and makes some friends. When one of those friends accidentally falls pregnant, Polly is awakened to the reality that abortion is illegal and can only be gotten through shady back-street dealings. Controversial at the time of its release due to the uncomfortable subject matter, UP THE JUNCTION presents a gritty, unappealing view of working class life in Britain, and calls to mind such kitchen sink dramas as Mike Leigh's VERA DRAKE and SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING. Based on the novel of the same name by Nell Dunn.
