Short Review

Interesting film, which uses poetic symbols as a narrative thread, possibly that confuses the average viewer, but whoever sees it for having an interest in characters like Byron and Shelley will not be inconvenient, in particular the performances of the then young Hugh Grant deserves the four stars, the Best performance I've seen in Byron's cinema. It has a beautiful photograph, being this and the tragic representations of a passage of life of these romantic writers the most remarkable.
