Before he died at the age of 30 and wrote one of the most important novels in Anglo-Saxon literature, Emily Brontë He spent his life trapped in a suffocating environment, discouraged by his own sister, Charlotte, who was both a patriarchal and immortal writer. Thus, in this “biopic” it is clear that in any case, he does not act as a faithful re-creation of the protagonist’s biography, but rather maintains a loose relationship with her to present a version of the young woman. radiates the same passion and sensuality on the surface it blows into ‘buzzing heights’.
In the behind-the-scenes exit, the actor is also Frances O’Connor He imagines a few acts of rebellion and a fiery romance for Bronte as he reflects on the complex nature of sibling relationships based on love but tainted by jealousy and rivalry. Getting maximum expression from both steppes and hills and indoors melancholy and grave mood, traces the portrait of a woman who did not survive in the tiny world she loves and is also uncomfortable with, but uses it to feed her imagination; and strategically to bring it to life The midpoint between the classicism of the narrative subject and the modernity of the aesthetic proposition this shows how far Brontë was a woman ahead of her time.
