might be about a girl genius. Fanny [Brawne (Australian actress Abbie Cornish)] is, as she informs the poets, a creative personality in her own right and more successful than they are. (Did she really invent the pleated skirt, the triple-petal mushroom collar, DIY fashion?) Her outfits are invariably conceptual works of art, while the unimaginative writers always wear the same dreary thing--the girl's interest in [John] Keats [(Ben Whishaw) ] is signaled when she opines that he would look well in blue velvet.
