When Saturday Comes (1996)
My old school
The opening scenes of this movie are shot at my old school. It used to be known as Annes Road Junior School but has since moved up market and is no referred to as Annes Grove. I'ts a primary school although it's depicted in the movie as a seconday (high) school. The pub they head off towards is the Shakespere but when they get inside it is transformed into another pub all together. These inaccuracies aside, the thing that miffs me the most is that were never allowed to leave school by that particular gate, we had to walk around the school. Sad to say that at 45 years old I'm still traumatised by that small restriction.
As for the movie, it's not really fiction, I grew up with these people, although they may have exaggerated the typical crowd size for a Blades match. By the way, respect to Tony Currie.
