In their isolated world on the Yorkshire Moors, the Bronte sisters found an escape in the chiIdhood fantasies that would help mouId the noveIs now regarded as classics of world literature; the grey-stone parsonage at Haworth in which they spent much of their short Iives has become a place of Iiterary pilgrimage. In this acclaimed mini-series, distinguished pIaywright, author and critic Christopher Fry teIIs the extraordinary story of a troubled family of genius.
Vickery Turner, Rosemary McHaIe and Ann PenfoId portray the shy, precociously talented Bronte sisters; MichaeI Kitchen plays BranweII, the brother whose Iife, ravaged by drink and drugs, ended at the age of 31, and AIfred Burke stars as the Reverend Patrick Bronte, the widowed father who would outIive aIl his children.
Tracing significant events and key periods, each member of the Bronte family is brought vividly to Iife in this meticulousIy researched series. |
