Title from web page
Rachel Weisz, in a deeply vulnerable performance, plays Hester Collyer, the wife of an upper-class judge (Simon Russell Beale) and a free spirit trapped in a passionless marriage. She meets Freddie (Tom Hiddleston), a troubled former Royal Air Force pilot, and begins an erotic relationship leaving her emotionally stranded and physically isolated. Director Terrence Davies' signature style includes beautiful tracking shots as well as the use of popular music of post-WWII England. Besides his two acclaimed semi-autobiographical features Distant Voices, Still Lives and The Long Day Closes, Mr. Davies films include The House of Mirth, The Neon Bible, and his masterful nonfiction exploration of his native city, Liverpool, Of Time and the City
