Synopsis
The brilliant Julie Harris repeats her Tony Award winning role as the eccentric nineteenth-century poet Emily Dickinson.
Against a handsome set depicting Dickinson's Amherst, Massachusetts home, Harris is in constant motion recollecting the poet's past from her work, her diaries and letters and encountering the significant people in her life - friends,
relatives and acquaintances.
The play shrewdly balances the agony of the secluded poet as she tells about her family and the bright moments when Dickinson can see the joy in life. Julie Harris' Emily Dickinson is so perfect here that the film assumes an authenticity and poignancy unmatched in similar films and the poetry emerges as fresh and contemporary (LIBRARY JOURNAL).
Critical Acclaim
"An arresting, riveting performance unlike any i've ever known. There is no actress more magical than Julie Harris." -Rex Reed
"A superb film for literature, humanities, womans' studies, american history, and filmmaking." -Library Journal
