Eassy Sunday. Sunday is by far and has always been my favorite day of the week. When I tell people this they usually look at me like I am crazy. Most people seem to like Friday or Saturday best‚ but for me‚ Sunday just always seems better. Sundays have a pleasant‚ relaxing routine too them. There is nothing that has to be done since most of the "chores" for the week such as laundry‚ grocery shopping and house cleaning have all been completed on Saturday. This makes Sunday feel like the ultimate

The shrill screech of the alarm clock fills the air in my room. I slam the alarm and the sound makes way for my first thought: “This is not how a relaxing Sunday starts.” I emerge from the house on to the back veranda; which is basking in the sun. It bakes my weary bones as I awaken. Despite the sun‚ there is a cool breeze that is just shy of cold. I step on the grass and the icy dew creeps between my toes sending chills up to my legs. The breeze is trying desperately to dislodge the leaves that

The film is regarded as a “kitchen sink drama” due to its blunt realist portrayal of England’s working class. Screenplay writer Arthur Sillitoe was regarded as an “angry young man” and Saturday Night and Sunday Morning clearly
