Not so much a film about Dylan Thomas and more about the two major female influences in his adult life; his wife Caitlan, his now married childhood sweet heart, Vera, and the unconventional almost beatnik ménage a trios that they created for themselves. Playing out during the height of WWII 'The Edge of Love' is a beautifully rendered film but there is little depth to the characters, in particular the two central protagonists, a fault as much of the actors as it is of the script. Ultimately this is a visually atmospheric, but wafer thin, look at what must have been a much more complex and intriguing period in the Welsh poet's life
