7/10
As a warning: (Could be considered a spoiler, I suppose)

Warning: Spoilers
I thought this movie was exquisite. From the casting to the acting to the settings to the directing and so on and so forth. The plot was beautifully seamless and carried out quite well by all involved in the film. Now that I have stated that, I just wanted to leave a warning that mentioned (at least somewhat) the triggering scene in this movie. It was entirely unexpected that Rickie rapes his wife Madeleine, somewhat close to the end of the story. It's not a very long scene, not even an entirely graphic scene, but some of the elements (it being 'flash-backy' in style, with bleeding over of crying/screaming from both 'time-frames', especially) were quite poignant. Beautiful movie, fair warning.
