How she suffered for her Art-

Cynthia Nixon is superb in the role portraying Emily Dickinson and Jennifer Ehle as her loving sister is tender and supportive in the role.

A bleak film written and directed by Terence Davies but I thought though at times beautiful would have been more balanced if he had shown less suffering and more of the joyful influences that inspired her poetry i doubt her life was all despair and angst, perhaps it says more about Terence Davies than Emily Dickinson. After seeing both actresses in plays on Broadway a few weeks ago it was fascinating seeing them both together acting beautifully on film..
