Genre Drama, Romance

The Newlyn School of artists flourished at the beginning of the 20th Century and the film focuses on the wild and bohemian Lamorna Group, which included Alfred Munnings and Laura and Harold Knight. The incendiary anti-Modernist Munnings, now regarded as one of Britain's most sought-after artists, is at the centre of the complex love triangle, involving aspiring artist Florence Carter-Wood and Gilbert Evans, the land agent in charge of the Lamorna Valley estate. True - and deeply moving - the story is played out against the timeless beauty of the Cornish coast, in the approaching shadow of The Great War.

Slant Magazine by

As sumptuous as it is immensely shallow, the film practically revels in its attention to lush English landscapes as a means to distract from its derivative storytelling.

Village Voice by John Oursler

The characters are broadly defined and tedious, which makes sitting through the film's 100 minutes something of a chore.

The Playlist by Kevin Jagernauth

Eventually settles into a dull routine much like the dissatisfied characters of the film, which will make for an easily dissatisfied audience.

The Dissolve by Nick Schager

Never less than predictable and all-too-often torpid, it’s a work that filters roiling true life through stolid formula.
