"The Edge of Love" is a 2008 romantic drama set during World War II and starring Keira Knightley, Sienna Miller, and Matthew Rhys. The film tells the story of the complicated relationships between poet Dylan Thomas (Rhys), his wife Caitlin MacNamara (Miller), his childhood friend Vera Phillips (Knightley), and Welsh soldier William Killick (Cillian Murphy).

The film opens with Vera returning to London, where she runs into Dylan and Caitlin. The trio, who used to spend time together as children, reconnect and Vera soon becomes a fixture in their lives. However, tensions grow between Caitlin and Vera when it becomes clear that they are both vying for Dylan's attention.

As the war begins to take its toll, tensions in the relationships reach a boiling point. William enters the picture and begins a passionate affair with Vera, leading to further friction with Caitlin. Meanwhile, Dylan struggles with his own demons as he continues to battle his alcoholism and the pressures of his rising fame.
