This film calmly tells a touching and profound story in life.
Bright Star, a biographical film depicting the love story of poet Keats in his youth, is based on a story between the English poet Keats and his lover Fanny.
The title of the film is taken from Keats's love poem to his lover Fanny, just like Keats's poems, which are as romantic, beautiful and moving.
Keats's talent is regrettable, his fate is sympathetic, but Keats's love story is enviable, and his short life can recite the most innocent poems for her in front of the people he loves the most, and this film records This unforgettable and desperate love of Keats
A love story about a poet. It is different from the general biographical film, and it is also different from the general love story. Not exaggerated and unpretentious, containing true feelings in blandness, and full of heat in understatement. 、
Keats is one of the most talented English Romantic poets, full of poetic talent, along with Shelley and Bayern, is considered to perfectly embody the characteristics of Western Romantic poetry, and is revered as an outstanding representative of the European Romantic movement.
Like many artists, Keats was poor and prosperous after his death. He lived only 25 short spring and autumn seasons in his life, leaving only many love poems and letters. Keats's letters are not only biographical, but also contain incisive insights into poetry and philosophy.
The film's unique female perspective, picturesque British countryside and meticulously crafted yet untraceable script give life to such a bland and watery story.
Because he was born like a summer flower, Keats was often frustrated by his inability to achieve anything, leaving only a love poem, or the most glorious time in his twenty-five years, the poet could be poor and sick, but he could not do without love, because love is the source of inspiration, the golden bud in the rose bud, the blue melancholy pupil used to spy on the beauty of the world.
In the film, Keats is poor and poor, taking care of his sick brother at the same time, but also persistent and determined creation has been doing nothing. Until the advent of love, Keats ushered in a new spring, the sweetness of love brought a steady stream of creative inspiration, but fate repeatedly played cruel jokes with him, when the power of love gradually crushed the worldly concept, the disease without warning took away Keats only twenty-five years of short time, and what was left for Fanny was constant love and lifelong thoughts.
Fanny, she is arrogant, unpopular like a hedgehog, is the kind of little family jasper who refuses to go thousands of miles by virtue of her beauty, lives a very ordinary ladylike life, she will go to the dance, follow the traditional way of communication, she is very sensitive, the flame of desire is buried under the calm appearance, but because of age, it happens to be out of control. Fanny met Keats at her best of times, equally arrogant and even wild, and her sentimental description puzzled her, when she didn't know poetry, much less Keats, but bought his poetry collection for a gamble, only to have a single beginning that left her captivated.
Keats wrote a love letter to Fanny: "I wish to be like a butterfly, living only in the most splendid three days of summer." In the depths of love, Fanny's boudoir was full of butterflies, and love was like a colorful wing constantly crossing the heart lake of hope, and when she was anxious for the hesitant tone of a love letter, the butterfly was like a dead leaf, and the sadness withered on the ground; he also said: "Write to me only a few words!" But it must be as strong as a poppy! So Finn told him that she was in love all the time.
Falling in love with Keats, even without the blessings of marriage, can be happy, and the haloed ring on his index finger is the most sincere yearning for life that he has not been able to achieve for her. Once she was the source of inspiration for him, the driving force of life. Without him, Keats's poetry would not have been filled with bright sunshine and brilliant stars.
Love carries too much beauty, reality carries too much pain, there seems to be a kind of mutual connection between the two, sometimes when love faces reality, it will only become collapsed, and after the good, it is often left with unbearable pain and suffering. As Keats wrote to Fanny: Three days of joy with you is better than fifty years of solitude.
Keats has the elegant and weak temperament characteristic of the poet, the sensitivity and sentimentality of nature, coupled with his own unbearable economic conditions, for this seemingly high-flying love, there is a feeling of wanting to love but not being able to love.
After Keats' death, Finney was widowed in black for three consecutive years, and for several years I wandered through the woods where the two had walked, immersed in the memories of the past every day.
From the beginning of The two of them can not look at each other, to the end of the you and me, love and love, from acquaintance, to love, and then to the final life and death of the whole process, overflowing with the usual love between men and women, temptation, waiting, sensitivity, pampering, jealousy, anger, ecstasy, grief and other behaviors and emotions. It turns out that the most difficult thing in this world is love, and the most difficult thing to imprison is human feelings.
Every detail of the film is like a stitching of wonderful oil painting slides, with curtains in the breeze, snowy winter forest, hyacinth-dotted idyllic scenery, and couples lying on the lawn by the river.
There are Keats lying on the flower trees, the sun is dappled, sitting quietly under the trees, quietly conceiving; there are Fanny sitting in front of the window, looking forward to it; there are them holding hands by the river, falling in the colorful; all the affection and romance, all in the spring sun shadow and flower trees, the gentle groan of time, slowly opening.
The four seasons that are accustomed to the year are constantly alternating in the beautiful scenery, making it difficult to extricate oneself in the dream realm.
From the beginning of love, until death forcibly separates it, it may be the whole secret of "pure love".
The film's restrained and gentle emotional portrayal shows Keats's love delicately and movingly, which is endlessly evocative.
It's a lonely love story, and because of Keats, it has the power to touch people's hearts like poetry.
