    That movie literally changed my life.
    The actors were fantastic, the directing/photography brilliant, the music beautiful.
    And Keats is also my favorite poet...

    Yeah, he's an amazing actor, and good looking, but does anyone else find his voice fascinating?

      He’s the kind of human who could read me a poem in order to fall asleep 😴

      *Actually, there are various recordings on You-Tube of his reading Keats's poetry, as well as that of other poets--and he is very good at imparting the feelings in the work.*

    Yes, BW is delightful to listen to - and his diction is so exact. In interviews he likes to give precise and meaningful answers - so he pauses to reflect on what he is saying.
    For an English actor at such a high level of excellence he has a studiedly "ordinary" voice - down-to-earth and beguiling at the same time. Of course he went to RADA so he is in the best tradition of British theatre studies - I guess that's where he learnt to do the background research he talks about here. Great man.

    I wonder why the movie didn't get as big as possible in the media. It is replete with beauty. The juxtaposition of Keats' poetry with the soundtrack and cinematography is just breathtaking. Ben Whishaw was perfect. I agree with you. I totally fell in love with him, even more than before.

    I personally love the ability that Ben has to interchange in between his shy, modest, outside character, and into this magnificent act that he portrays in all of his films. Kudos, Ben! Oh, and he has changed in many films to being gay to being straight many times. Don't lose hope guys and girls; he could be bisexual or pansexual! And I rest my case. -ollies back to tumblr-

    Apparently, when he'd completed his scenes, Dustin Hoffman said to Ben: "It's over to you now to complete this - and you're making a silent movie!" (Or words to that effect).

    I love to watch him in movies but I bough this one and I was terribly bored. Actors like this make me respect the profesion because does not seem vain or looking for anything else but to do what he likes and be part of something artistic. and Isnt he cute?
