Review of Bright Star (2009) by Jerald C — 08 Mar 2012
A majestic movie. Very slow, very sad but I loved how it grew more and more on me, and its being so realistic -- just follow it and leave out all the rest. "Bright Star" is the amazing story of poet John Keats, just it's told from his love's point of view. That was just beautiful, so innocent and light. Jane Campion did a wonderful job in bringing this story to life. I don't know how to explain it, but when I was done seeing the movie I felt relaxed and had a feeling of sadness...
Abbie Cornish was the right choice to play Fanny. The soundtrack was very delicate and appropriate for the story that was being told; the ending is just perfect. Same for the many locations. A forgotten gem that I'd recommend you watch.
