Review of 45 Years (2015) by Simon D — 24 Jan 2016
Despite some intermittent pacing issues, this portrait of a long-term marriage in quiet crisis delivers with understated power and fine performances by its two protagonists. Its deft handling of conflicted feelings and adept treatment of the uncertainties they evoke paint a complex, finely crafted story that leaves viewers hanging on every nuance right up until the end (and then some).
This isn't always the easiest film to watch, but it leaves an indelible impression on anyone who sees it.
