The Brontë Sisters - 1979 - 6/10
AKA - Les Soeurs Brontë

French dramatization of sisters Emily, Anne and Charlotte. Oh yeah, brother Branwell, too.
This is before publication. Home life, Charlotte’s Belgium period, Branwell’s disastrous affair.
Austere film, with bleak countryside and cramped interiors.
Characters Branwell and Emily fleshed out best, though I raised an eyebrow at times.
Possibly a companion with the documentary, The Brilliant Brontë Sisters.
Literary acclaim arrives late in this.
Not an upbeat experience, fans of the Brontës already anticipate this.
