Costume Drama Whore-A-Thon Day 16

Day 16 'Bright Star' (2009)
Bassed on the true story about the ill fated love affair between poet John Keats and Franny Brawne. Beautifully shot by Jane Campion. The costumes were beautiful, the sets were good. It's a very beautiful movie to look at. Abbie Cornish was very good and I was surprised that she wasn't nominated for an Oscar.

It's a touching love story but be it's also freaking depressing. I was so moved and involved in the story. Excellent movie. Should be shown more love. What I also found very moving was the love letters they wrote to each other. What you hear in the film was there actual letters. Very touching.
