Life for Ruth is a 1962 British drama film produced by Michael Relph directed by Basil Dearden and starring Michael Craig, Patrick McGoohan and Janet Munro.

Production

The film was based on an original script by the husband and wife team of Janet Green and John McCormick, who had written Sapphire and Victim for Dearden and Relph. They wrote it in 1961 under the title God the Father then A Matter of Conscience.

Michael Craig had worked with Dearden and Relph on Sapphire. He says he was "surprised to be offered the film – playing a North country working class chap seemed against type – but I was delighted to do it."

Filming took place in Sunderland and Seaham Harbour, Co Durham.
