A Quiet Passion
Based on poet Emily Dickinson's life and work, director and writer Terence Davies tries, through biographies and texts, to understand how Dickinson's poems came to be, making her one of history's greatest poets. He portrays Dickinson's life from her adolescence to her later years as a timid, non-recognized artist. In the role of Emily Dickinson, Cynthia Nixon makes the best performance of her career, according to Paul Heath at The Hollywood News.
