The Jane Campion-directed and written romantic drama is currently in theatres and is rated PG. Don't forget to read our review of the film. London 1818: a secret love affair begins between 23 year old English poet, John Keats, and the girl next door, Fanny Brawne, an outspoken student of fashion. This unlikely pair started at odds; he thinking her a stylish minx, she unimpressed by literature in general. It was the illness of Keats’s younger brother that drew them together. Keats was touched by Fanny’s efforts to help and agreed to teach her poetry.

Abbie Cornish shines in Jane Campion’s new film, Bright Star
27 October 2009 5:22 AM, PDT | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »
In her new film, Bright Star, Jane Campion tells the true story of the intensely passionate, yet restrained, love affair that developed between the young Romantic poet John Keats and fashion student Fanny Brawne, who literally was, while Keats lived in a house next to her in Hampstead, “the girl next door.” There was nothing ordinary or commonplace about this relationship however. The affair sparked a prolific period of creativity for the poet, during which Keats wrote some of his most inspired and celebrated works, including the sonnet ‘Bright Star,’ before his untimely death at the age of 25. Opposites often attract. His first impressions were that she was something of a vacuous fashion student, a “minx." She comments that poetry is “something of a strain to work out.” Despite these differences, Brawne (Abbie Cornish) finds him beguiling enough to persevere with puzzling over rhyming couplets, while Keats (Ben Whishaw) gradually »

BFI Lff Review: Bright Star
19 October 2009 2:44 PM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Bright Star is a visually poetic film from Jane Campion, based on the final years of one of the most celebrated Romantic poets, John Keats, and his relationship with Fanny Brawne. Ben Wishaw follows his leading performance in Perfume as the poet and Australian actress Abbie Cornish as Keats’ muse. Based on Andrew Motion’s biography of Keats it is a tour de force of tragic love with a serious and affecting intelligence and Campion wisely chooses to let the poetry come, like leaves to a tree, from the inspiration Keats finds with his muse, Fanny Brawne.
It is a sad film filled with bright, shining moments. Keats is portrayed as a man failing in health and prospects, surrounded by friends who love him though unable to sustain him. Sharing a room with his bullish close friend Brown (Paul Schneider) and a house with the Brawne family Keats’ magisterial poetic »

Oscar Update: What's There to Talk About?
13 October 2009 1:26 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
Is it just me or is the awards race this year a little boring? Nothing is moving the dial as Oscar pundits seem to have had their hands when it comes to tossing out much early praise.
So far the one film that should have everyone standing up cheering is Lee Daniels and Lionsgate's Precious, but I don't even want to speculate as to why people are now only focusing on the negative and wondering if Mo'Nique is killing her Oscar chances. EW's Dave Karger is the latest to bring it up wondering if dirt-digger Roger Friedman's piece on Mo'Nique's demands for appearance fees will hurt her chances. Karger remembers his interview with her from earlier in the year when she said, "Any buzz is appreciated. The NAACP Image Awards, the Oscars, the SAG Award, the award they might want to give me down at the Maxine Waters' Preparatory school, »

Read John Keats' poetry, a nineteenth century English poet in his mid-twenties, and you'll have a better understanding of the approach director Jane Campion has taken in recreating the last years of his short lived life (he died of tuberculosis at the age of twenty-five). Campion ("The Piano"), like Keats' vast body of work, is meticulously dedicated to precision and beauty that happens to spring out of nowhere. A majority of "Bright Star's" scenes take on a life of their own, forming its beauty, structuring its own meaningfulness and creating images that, if appreciated, should remain in memory for quite sometime.

In-Depth Interviews with Director Jane Campion and Paul Schneider for "Bright Star"
25 September 2009 11:29 AM, PDT | Manny the Movie Guy | See recent Manny the Movie Guy news »
Not to sound cliche but it was truly a delight meeting Jane Campion, one of the three women directors to be ever nominated for a Best Director Oscar (the other two were Lina Wertmuller in 1976 for "Seven Beauties" and Sofia Coppola for 2003's "Lost in Translation").
Borrowing from the great romantic poet, John Keats, the subject of the director's "Bright Star," interviewing Campion was a thing of beauty and will definitely be a joy forever.
Campion was smart, provocative, brilliant. She hinted on quitting making movies right after 2003's "In the Cut." That would have been a tragedy.
So thank you to my friends at Palm Springs International Film Society for making these interviews happened. Actor Paul Schneider, who perfected a Scottish accent to play Keats' confidante, Charles Armitage Brown, was also a pleasure to talk to.

Here's my interview with Campion. »
