A Quiet Passion’s trailer’s here –
It looks like Lots of Fun –
Cyntha Nixon plays the Lead –
Emily Dickinson.
Terence Davies directed it –
His Credits List is long –
Director of The House of Mirth –
And also Sunset Song.
They built anew the poet’s Home –
A luscious Period Scene –
Where Jennifer Ehle cries – and smiles –
Plus there’s Keith Carradine.
The film will screen at Toronto –
It premiered at Berlin.
There’s no U.S. release date yet –
And that’s the state we’re in.
So ask someone who’s seen the Film –
An Essayist – or Tweeter –
If Davies brings us Dickinson –
Or merely apes her meter.
