This film is so depressing that it should never be watched just before bedtime, if at all. It is a study in all the ways that a love affair can be spoiled before it gets going. Where is the pleasure in that ?
I have tried to imagine what sort of person might enjoy this misery. Perhaps it appeals to Puritans as they like to deny everybody pleasure. Or maybe it appeals to those who like to spoil pleasure for others but not for themselves.
I give it one star for Celia Johnson's acting. She made me so sorry for her character, trapped in an inadequate marriage. One thing is for sure; I will never watch this film again.
