Review of Bright Star (2009) by Cassie P — 28 May 2010
I saw this again recently. I forgot how good it was. Cinematography is just brilliant. Paul Schneider is particularly good. All bumble and bluster and passive, aggressive possessiveness. So good at insinuating that poor Keats is simultaniously not good enough and too good at the same time for Fanny Brawne.
Probably the reason why the man he's playing in real life was never much of a poet. He had no sense of the romantic. The end credit sequence is really rather brilliant. Letting Keats do his best to speak for himself after they've told quite the story about him.
