Bright Star may be the most delicate movie I've ever seen. Just look at that picture. The guy who plays John Keats is really skinny and will be nominated for an Academy Award for perfecting the art of the pathetic cough. I'm by no means an ode to the male sex, but I really wanted to kick his ass by the time it was over. The girl character cries a lot. John Keats' roomie makes lots of witty comments. Smart people will love this movie because it's about a romantic poet and the dialogue is sort of hard to comprehend at times because that's how people talked back in the day. I thought it was OK and worth watching because the violin music was quite beautiful and pretty much every shot glowed with an intense pureness. Pretty colors, dude. The part where they're falling in love was really nice too. I'd watch it when it comes out on DVD if I were you.
