The film, based on a short story by David Constantine, presents a quietly heartbreaking examination of a marriage under pressure, and pairs Rampling with fellow screen legend Tom Courtenay: the duo play a retired couple whose peaceful, stable life is rocked when they receive a bit of surprising news from the past. While the story might seem worlds away from WEEKEND, Haigh’s breakout 2011 drama about two young men whose one night stand develops into a love affair, the director’s affinity for intimate, delicately observed stories about the complexities of relationships is ever-present. When Haigh and Rampling took a trip into the Bargain Bag, their own charming closeness was clearly evident. The films they chose to talk about and take home are listed below.)
