Movie Story


Written and directed by Academy Award winner Jane Campion, "Bright Star" is a riveting 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. Ben Whishaw ("The International", "I'm Not There") and Abbie Cornish ("Stop-Loss", "Elizabeth: The Golden Age") star as Keats and Brawne, respectively. The film is co-produced by Campion, Jan Chapman, and Caroline Hewitt.

Amazing film. It is a "romantic evocation", to be slightly redundant. It recreates the period, Keats' poetry, it is also a picture of a family. Once again Jane Campion proves that she is an exceptional filmamaker'
