By Lindsey Bahr, Associated Press There is no misfortune too shattering for Derek Cianfrance it seems. The writer and director of “Blue Valentine,” ”The Place Beyond the Pines” and now, an adaptation of the M.L. Stedman novel “The Light Between Oceans ” confidently strides into stories of little hope and painful circumstance, using pretty actors and even prettier settings to create sweeping milieus of human devastation. But where the dissolving marriage in “Blue Valentine” was so tangibly real that it felt as raw as a breakup, “The Light Between Oceans” crashes into the shores of its own strange story, pummeling the audience with Big Feelings that never quite cut through.
