The Edge of Love

Welsh poet Dylan Thomas and his flirtatious wife Caitlin bump into Dylan's childhood sweetheart Vera in war-torn London. Despite potential jealousies, the two women become friends, and Vera's feelings for duplicitous Dylan are complicated by her attraction to dashing officer William Killick.
