Well-done if soapy depiction of the Olivier marriage, fired by two convincing performances from Higgins as Olivier, and especially Martin as Leigh. Film never really rises above its made for TV roots, but is recommended for fans of the couple, or those interested in the Australia of the 1940s, which is used as a backdrop for the drama.
