Terence Davies, The Deep Blue Sea



One of Britain’s most distinctive cinematic voices, Terence Davies (“The House of Mirth,” “Distant Voices, Still Lives”) transforms a minor Fifties Terence Rattigan drama that starred Vivien Leigh in stage and screen versions into a superbly played film, accented with his particular intimacy as a Lady (Rachel Weisz) dofts the aristocracy for the carnal pleasures of a callow younger man (Tim Hiddleston who played F.Scott Fitzgerald in Woody Allen’s “Midnight in Paris”).
