Customer Reviews
what a beautiful film
Such a good film on so many levels.
A heartbeaking love story. Prepare to shed some tears.
A beautiful film to look at, Jane Campion doesn't put a foot wrong. It looks authentic and avoids the usual BBC period drama feel.
Great casting and of course superb acting.
I saw this in France and nobody in the audience moved until the lights came up.
If you buy one dvd this week make sure its this one.
Brilliant, avoids all the usual mundane traps of period drama. A genuinely emotional film.
Before I saw 'Bright Star' (2009) it must be said that I was not a fan of period dramas. Most productions are slow-paced and old fashioned but Campion's film gives the genre a new lease of life and provides an authentic and beautiful account of the three year romance between Keats and Brawne.
I highly recommend this title.
Would it have been less romantic for director Jane Campion to acknowledge in her film that the poet John Keats (1795-1821) frequented brothels before he met Fanny Brawne (some biographers suggest he continued using prostitutes whilst courting her), that Brawne did in fact marry another after the poet died, or that Keats - in contrast to the sublime gorgeousness of Ben Whishaw - apparently suffered from acne?
