The small, incidental changes in his day-to-day behavior are perfectly portrayed by the actor.  Charlotte Rampling was a celebrated English beauty in her prime and still looks gorgeous. Courtenay is good but this is her film.

A beautifully portrayed romantic drama, the movie broods on the insecurity struggles of a couple, 45 years into their marriage. The brilliant performances by the lead actors and the emotional baggage of the story make it worth a watch, especially for romance lovers.

If this dramatic piece holds your attention, it is because of Rampling’s ability to convey so much through her eyes and expressions, Courtenay’s understated performance providing her with the requisite cues.

The film, in its quiet and powerful way, shows us the fragility of marriage…

Andrew Haigh’s marital drama features superb performances by Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay…
