The Edge of Love (2008)
Directed by John
Maybury this film based on real events stars Keira Knightley, Sienna
Miller, Cillian Murphy and Matthew Rhys. We follow the life of Dylan
Thomas and his wife during WW2 along with that of their best friend
and her husband.
While this period
piece, which is some what of a British speciality, has some good
parts if never manages to coalesce into something whole. It also
seems that the plot wanders off from real events a fair amount. The
cast do fairly well and Keira Knightley manages to hold a good Welsh
accent through out but ultimately this is a bit of a disappointing
effort.
2/5
