the end of the road (1954)

"I didn't ask for anything."
After 50 years working in a factory, Mick-Mack (Finlay Currie) is forced into retirement. Unhappy, he searches for employment, but comes up against ageism, and his family are too wrapped up in their own lives to take much notice of his decent into depression.
Never really develops the drama enough, and such films were washed away shortly after by the kitchen sink drama's.
