    That movie literally changed my life.
    The actors were fantastic, the directing/photography brilliant, the music beautiful.
    And Keats is also my favorite poet...

    One of my very favorite movies of all time. Truly emotional.

    I wonder why the movie didn't get as big as possible in the media. It is replete with beauty. The juxtaposition of Keats' poetry with the soundtrack and cinematography is just breathtaking. Ben Whishaw was perfect. I agree with you. I totally fell in love with him, even more than before.

    Yes, BW is delightful to listen to - and his diction is so exact. In interviews he likes to give precise and meaningful answers - so he pauses to reflect on what he is saying.
    For an English actor at such a high level of excellence he has a studiedly "ordinary" voice - down-to-earth and beguiling at the same time. Of course he went to RADA so he is in the best tradition of British theatre studies - I guess that's where he learnt to do the background research he talks about here. Great man.

      *Actually, there are various recordings on You-Tube of his reading Keats's poetry, as well as that of other poets--and he is very good at imparting the feelings in the work.*

    Apparently, when he'd completed his scenes, Dustin Hoffman said to Ben: "It's over to you now to complete this - and you're making a silent movie!" (Or words to that effect).

    I personally love the ability that Ben has to interchange in between his shy, modest, outside character, and into this magnificent act that he portrays in all of his films. Kudos, Ben! Oh, and he has changed in many films to being gay to being straight many times. Don't lose hope guys and girls; he could be bisexual or pansexual! And I rest my case. -ollies back to tumblr-
