Entertainment Reviews:
[A] beautifully made film....A completely heartbreaking story brought to exquisite life via immaculate writing, directing and acting...
Los Angeles Times
[A] pedigreed period-piece drama, with a screenplay by Ian McEwan and a fine cast that includes the invaluable Saoirse Ronan.
Chicago Sun-Times
Despite strong performances and a promising premise, On Chesil Beach lacks a directorial vision to elevate it to a breathtaking work of art, and suffers from a script that doesn't know where to stop for its own good on screen.

Third Coast Review
[Ronan is] glorious, as she always is....It's based on a superb 2007 novel by acclaimed author Ian McEwan, who also wrote the screenplay...
Rolling Stone
Rating: D --
"On Chesil Beach" can't even be called nihilistic, because even nihilism requires commitment.

A Reel of One's Own
Rating: 5/10 --
By keeping a literary structure intact, the film is dead on arrival.

3 stars out of 5 -- Cooke shoots the beautiful scenery in sombre tones of blue, grey and stone.

Product Description:
In 1962 England, conservative, demure violinist Florence (Saoirse Ronan) and brash, working class graduate student Edward (Billy Howle) fall in love despite their different backgrounds. They get married, but things fall apart on their honeymoon at Chesil Beach when the newlyweds are unable to enjoy physical intimacy because of their opposing attitudes about sex. The resulting fight changes the course of their relationship. Directed by Dominic Cooke. Adapted by Ian McEwan from his novel of the same name.
