Add Jane Campion, rich, sensual, exciting quietly Bright Star to the very short list of films admirable writers. In this case, the writer John Keats (Ben Whishaw), the Romantic poet who died at age 25 thinking himself a failure. The movie, set in his last years, focuses on friendship and playful with the evolution of love for Fanny Brawne (Abbie Cornish), the independent-minded young man who lived near Hampstead Village and was, in its way, an art spirit . Complete a full constellation ineffable - is not exactly a love triangle - is the host of Keats Charles Armitage Brown (Paul Schneider), who loves, appreciates, and refers to Keats with pride and envy, and engages in tacit rivalry Fanny. The three performances are excellent, with Whishaw add to your gallery of artist (the murderer obsessed olfactorily perfume, one of the Bob Dylans in I'm Not There), and Cornish and Schneider functions taking top honors in 2009. As in The Campion, Piano, others are part of the central story, and have identities, personalities, and states that intelligence and understanding to appreciate without having to announce in the dialogue. Kerry Fox (a wild redhead girl Campion angel at my table for almost two decades) evokes the mother of Fanny, with broad strokes, and Fanny's younger sister and brother are vigilant presence and, indeed, co-conspirators in courtship. In addition, Bright Star is the rare period film to convey - without being pushy - what it was like living in another era, the nature of houses and rooms and how people occupied, the windows so people linked sites and extend lives and experiences, such as fires and the sunlight warms English milky no. And there's always a feeling of being alive on place and time, the creaking of the wooden walkway underfoot and the wind noise, as lovers of the cane to walk through a wetland. The poetry grows out of these things, at least, Jane Campion does.
