The Deep Blue Sea

England Rachael Weisz d/ Terrence Davies

Typically sumptuous-looking effort by one of England's best filmmakers. This story is about a woman who obsessively loves a man who doesn't love her and treats her badly...not because he's mean...but because he can.

I found following a heroine around who is so craven irritating after a while. I wanted to slap her and tell her to wake up...get over him. But, of course, in matters of the heart it's easier said than done.

Still I appreciated the great skill on display here...beautiful lighting, compositions, camera movement. I'll willingly watch anything this guy does. And here he does touch truth.
