Watch: Love on the Dole 1941 123movies, Full Movie Online – During the depression in England, a young lady from Lancashire decides to be a rich bookmaker’s mistress, just to help the rest of her family who are unemployed..
Plot: Depressing and realistic family drama about the struggles of unemployment and poverty in 1930s Lancashire. The 20-year-old Kerr gives an emotionally charged performance as Hardcastle, one of the cotton workers trying to make life better. Interlaced with humour that brings a ray of sunshine to the pervasive bleakness, this remains a powerful social study of life between the wars, and was a rare problem picture to come out of Britain at the time.

Couldnt be made when relevant
There were a number of potential films that were unmade until war was declared,and this was one.Directed by one of the great British directors,John Baxter.Starring Deborah Kerr on her way to the top,without as claimed in another review a cockney accent.

Bleak and atmospheric
A British drama; A story set in Salford, England during the depression. A proud miner struggles to provide for his family, while his daughter fends off the advances of two men: a kindly Labour Party representative, and an oily bookmaker. Tightly scripted and deeply affecting, it deals with the theme of a classic 1930s dilemma: escape poverty or keep faith with the morality of her class and Lancashire values. The film resonates with strong feeling for the genuine harshness and brutal truths of poverty and unemployment. There are all round good performances, especially Deborah Kerr who is subtly affecting in her portrayal of personal conflict, and Geoffrey Hibbert who plays his part with innocence and remarkable poignance. While the film has a gloomy feel, it also has comic relief as well as pathos and there is a heartfelt feeling throughout the different sub plots, and avoids mawkishness and over-sentimentality. As an aside, this was an adaptation of the Walter Greenwood novel, scripted by himself, and was censored up until its release for its “sordid” story and comment on social conditions. The film reinforced the view at the time that Britain and its working classes had survived such hardships and would survive others. The outbreak of war was one of the main catalysts for change in housing conditions in communities like “Hankey Park” due to full employment and a government landslide in 1946.
