About this movie

Kate Mercer (Charlotte Rampling) is excitedly planning a party to celebrate her 45th wedding anniversary. One week before the celebration however, a letter arrives for her husband, Geoff (Tom Courtenay). The body of his first love has been discovered, frozen in the glaciers of the Swiss Alps after a tragic accident on a hiking holiday in 1962. Though Kate continues to prepare for the anniversary, she becomes increasingly concerned by Geoff’s preoccupation with the accident and with his past relationship. By the time the party comes round, there may not be a marriage left to celebrate.

Dull tale about a woman who can't forgive her husband something that happened 45 years ago. Well acted but dull as ditch water.

The combination of an amazing screenplay, acting that brings the story alive, and a director with the courage to linger and let the actors play out the scenes makes for an engaging, believable and touching drama that cannot fail to tug at the heartstrings. A film that shines, as one of the best dramas of 2015!

Incredible, understated acting masterclass from both leads. Many people in couples have felt the same as La Rampling's character. Even though nothing really happens, if you watch this film it will probably leave a lasting impression.
