The story is set in England circa 1816-1821. The script is all by Jane Campion, based on famous romantic English poets John Keats (Ben Whishaw) and Fanny Brawne (Abbie Cornish) was adapted from a love story.
The director focused on music this time, and the piano soundtrack was unforgettable, making the story more moving.
The film was nominated for this year's Oscar for Best Costume Design (lost to "The Young Victoria"), Of course, I will look at the clothes carefully. It turns out that Fanny Brawne is obsessed with sewing, designing clothes for himself, and new styles every day. It can be said to be a Coco Chanel in
the 19th century. In those days, love was simple and subtle. But poor poets dare not love because their livelihood is a problem , No money to marry Fanny. The two have been in love for a long time, but fortunately, Fanny's mother saw the woman's love so hard, she persuaded her to give up many times, and finally supported her daughter.
Fanny said: You all told me to give up, even if I I wanted to let it go, but I couldn't.
Romantic lingering is John Keats and Fanny Brawne listening to each other's voices across the wall. Before going to bed at night and snuggling across the wall, the legend says good night.
As the director said, the movie itself is like a narrative poem , to express their love.
They love bitterly and poignantly.
Abbie Cornish ("Elizabeth: The Gold Age Elizabeth: The Golden Age" and "Love. Candy") is better than Ben Whishaw ("Perfume: The Story of a Murderer Perfume: A Murderer's Tale") plays better,But Ben Whishaw also does a good job of interpreting the essence of the melancholic poet.
John Keats had always felt like he had accomplished nothing when he died, when he was only twenty-five years old. In fact, he has since been regarded as one of the six great British poets of the Romantic era.
