Sons and Lovers (1960)
Even for a Jedi, there comes a moment to sit back and simply watch. So join me, Jedi Master Derk Popwalker, as I dive into a galaxy of Trailers, Featurettes, and even the occasional Full Movie or two in The Weekend Watch — a little corner of the cosmos where the popcorn is warm, the lightsabers are dimmed, and the fun begins.
In a small English coal town, aspiring artist Paul Morel (Dean Stockwell) sets out to break free of the difficult mining life that has hardened his father, Walter (Trevor Howard), and killed his brother. His wishes appear to come true when local art lover Henry Hadlock (Ernest Thesiger) offers to send him to art school in London. However, Paul’s deep love for his kind but possessive mother, Gertrude (Wendy Hiller), threatens to keep him from abandoning his old life.
