Wissenswertes
Kenneth More says in his autobiography, "More or Less", that he was against having Vivien Leigh as his co star in the film, regarding her as altogether too glamorous. He felt that the play's concentration on the squalor of the surroundings in which the Leigh character finds herself had been greatly diminished for the film, which had color, CinemaScope and locations in Switzerland and made no reference to the deprivations of the war or the post-war austerity era in Britain. Leigh was aware of his opposition, which he expressed openly at a rehearsal, and he says that did not help the chemistry between the two of them. (More would have preferred Peggy Ashcroft with whom he had appeared in the original play - she was less glamorous and older). The 2011 remake resolutely de-glamorizes everything.

A Leigh Staple

"The Deep Blue Sea" represents a notable staple in the film repertoire of Vivien Leigh. Given the enormous popularity and artistic achievements of this consummate British actress, it seems incredible that this film is not available on video. She is always fascinating to watch, and this drama about marital difficulties provides her with a good "modern day" role, compared to her many period/costume pieces. She is beautiful, skillful, and intelligent in her approach to and realization of her characters, and all are evident in this sensibly presented drama. Her co-star, Kenneth More, is professional as always; Eric Portman gives his usual strong character support; and the appearance of Emlyn Williams is a special bonus. The film needs to be seen on the big screen in CinemaScope to get its maximum impact. It deserves to be revived, and more importantly, made available on video.
