Rating: [M] offensive language and content that may disturb
Genres: Drama / Romance

Topics: Period 1950s.

Feat. Rachel Weisz, Tom Hiddleston, Simon Russell-Beale, Ann Mitchell, Karl Johnson

Aroview: Post-war romantic drama in which Rachel Weisz plays the wife of a British Judge caught in a self-destructive love affair with a Royal Air Force pilot.

Terence Davies gives Terrence Rattigan's classic play a typically lush treatment, and if at times he seems more concerned with minute period detail, this is still a treat for fans of doomed love stories with finely judged performances.

3 stars (Good Enough) Rachel is fine but the strength of the film lies in the production detail - for example, her room with the depressing wallpaper is spot on (as Spike Milligan would note - you turn the light on and the room gets darker) as is the bomb damage in the street. ~Tubbs
