"Bright Star" 2009

Abbie Cornish ("Candy") & Ben Wishaw ("Perfume") are excellent in this Georgian (1714 to 1830 according to Wikipedia) love story about poet John Keats by Jane Campion ("The Piano", "The Portrait of a Lady" & "Holy Smoke").    If you like the period costumes, a bit of poetry and a good love story, you'll probably love this film.  Even though I'm a big fan of Jane Campion's work, this sort of thing doesn't really float my boat. Margaret & David rated it very highly (4.5 & 5 stars), click here to see their review.star iconstar iconstar icon
