2009/09/13 Bright Star (PG) (* * */5) (Talk Cinema)

(2009-US) d Jane Campion
Stars Abby Cornish (Fanny Brawne), Ben Whishaw (John Keats), Paul Schneider (Mr. Brown), Kerry Fox (Mrs. Brawne), Eddie Martin (Toots) (Drama/Romance)

The drama based on the three-year romance between 19th century poet John Keats and Fanny Brawne, which was cut short by Keats' untimely death at age 25.

Was a period film similar to novels by Jane Austen. Lead actor is a poet and his accent and words are sometimes hard to follow. Was a love story between a girl coming of age and a poet.
