Bright Star (2009) Director: Jane Campion
"I had such a dream last night. I was floating above the trees with my lips connected to... to those of a beautiful figure, for what seemed like an age. Flowery treetops sprung up beneath us and we, um... rested on them with the lightness of a cloud." "Who was the figure?" "I must have had my eyes closed because I can't remember." "And yet you remember the treetops." "Not so well as I remember the lips." "Whose lips? Were they my lips?"
We are back on that Robocop 2014 bullshit again.

PERIOD MOVIES TO SURVIVE THE QUARANTINE
Here’s today’s recommendation!
2009′s BRIGHT STAR focusses on the last three years of the romantic poet John Keats's life and his relationship with Fanny Brawne, and it’s quite an out of the ordinary biopic. It shies away from a more standard narrative and focuses mainly on emotion. And by doing this, it manages to translate the poetic experience into the screen. It feels and reads as a two-hour drive into the poetic world of Keats and the romantics and it's worth every minute of it.
It's a very well blended mix of classical filmmaking with very modern sensibilities and cinematography that manages to immerse you into the world of these characters and bring to you the full experience of love and loss.
The costumes play a key role in this movie; as it centers around a seamstress. As such, she sews her own gowns, and the costume design makes the most out of that: the evolution of the style and color palette as she falls deeply in love is almost crystal clear.
I stumbled upon this film browsing through Netflix a few years back, and I haven’t stopped rewatching it since. So many times actually, that it allowed us to make an article about it (Bright Star: Poetry made Image).
Let me know your thoughts! We’ll be back tomorrow with another Period Drama for your enjoyment!
