One of Lean's least known films but still very much the work of a fine creative talent (who makes an uncredited appearance as a speedboat driver). This is a kind of Brief Encounter 2 based on a novel by H G Wells of all people. Ann Todd is married to wealthy older Claude Rains but she can't forget her romance with Trevor Howard. Beautifully photographed in black and white, largely on European locations. A charming overlooked gem which doesn't outstay its welcome in under 90 minutes.

It's a fascinating snapshot of middle-class mores during the post-War socialist revolution, but it cries out for a heroine of Celia Johnson's sensitivity.

It is not a restful film and does not, for example, possess the integrity such as was shown by David Lean in his treatment of Brief Encounter.

There's a degree of emotional subtlety here that often went missing in the director's later work.

I don't know - it's not exactly bad, but at the same time it reminds you of several better known films and there's a good reason those are better known.
