I believe this is based on a true story. Looks really good and apparently has a sad ending.

Will you guys be seeing this? I think it's out now.

I'm thinking about seeing it on Tuesday, I love Keats and it's had some great reviews

It is about Keats - the romantic poet.

It mainly covers his romantic entanglement with Frances Brawne.

The film is directed by Jane Campion (The Piano) and based upon research by Andrew Motion (the ex-Poet Laureate).

It's an excellent film, though I would say it requires patience whilst it gets going.

I've just watched Elizabethtown.

I was absolutely amazed to see Paul Schnieder with his normal US accent, having seen him play Charles Brown in Bright Star with a perfect (to my English ear) Scots accent.

He even looked Scottish! (tartan suit helped, I guess)

A simply delightful film.

"Topper" had the best part and what a fantastic little actor. I loved his scenes.

More of "Topper" please!

An Oscar for Topper!
