Heart to Heart is a 1962 television play. It was written by Terence Rattigan, directed by Alvin Rakoff and starred Kenneth More.
It was the first production for The Largest Theatre in the World project. This involved a number of countries producing their own version of a television play which would be shown simultaneously.
A television personality, David Mann, interviews a politician.
The script was commissioned from Rattigan. It was based on a show like Face to Face with John Freeman.
More had not appeared on television for a number of years when cast in this. His role had originally been offered to Richard Burton.
Critical response to the production was excellent.
According to Peter Sallis, who was in the cast "The play went out and I don't think it was ever repeated. Whether the citizens of each country appreciated the fact that it was being shown in a different language next door at the same time I don't know. The effect it had on the history of television I would think was probably very slight, but it didn't do Terence Rattigan any harm."
Lyn Lockwood of The Daily Telegraph called it an "exciting drama". He also praised it for the performances of Ralph Richardson and Kenneth More, and it's supporting cast.
The Belfast Telegraph praised it for the production, its plot and for the performances of Kenneth More, Ralph Richardson and Peter Sallis. At the same time they also criticized it for being too focused on romantic subplots.
The BBC released the play on DVD on the "Terence Rattigan Collection" which contains nine old BBC TV plays on five discs. The DVD was released on the 4 July 2011 on DVD Region 2.
