Bright Star

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)
