Review of 45 Years (2015) by Ginak — 16 Jan 2016
Charlotte Rampling gives the performance of a lifetime as a woman who finds that she has a rival for her husband’s love whom she never dreamed had such a hold on him until the eve of their 45th wedding anniversary.
Her husband has never forgotten his Katcha, and the story of how she re-enters his life and how his reaction shatters what seemed to be a solid relationship is beautifully told. I found this tragic story deeply moving and overwhelmingly sad thanks to Rampling’s wonderful portrayal of a woman whose belief in her husband’s love is shaken to the core and, judging by the last scene at their anniversary party, tragically broken forever.
Tom Courtney is also wonderful as the husband with the secret.
