In 1818, high-spirited young Fanny Brawne finds herself increasingly intrigued by the handsome but aloof poet John Keats, who lives next door to her family friends the Dilkes. After reading a book of his poetry, she finds herself even more drawn to the taciturn Keats. Although he agrees to teach her about poetry, Keats cannot act on his reciprocated feelings for Fanny, since as a struggling poet he has no money to support a wife.

A painfully slow but tenderly told love story of John Keats and Fanny Brawne. The acting (Ben Whishaw always brilliantly tragic) and setting are all beautiful. I give this film a 6 (fair - because of the pace) out of 10. [Romantic BioPic]

Bright Star is the rare biopic of an artist that actually provides some insight into its subject’s craft. Usually, a film about a writer, including such recent examples as To Olivia (Roald Dahl) and The Laureate (Robert Graves), will approach the creative process as 99-percent inspiration and 1-pe More

Good performances from Cornish, Whishaw and Schneider for a folks and costums movie.
