Inhalt: |
In their isolated world on the Yorkshire Moors, the Bronte sisters found an escape in the chiIdhood fantasies that would help mould 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 playwright, author and critic Christopher Fry tells the extraordinary story of a troubIed family of genius.
Vickery Turner, Rosemary McHale and Ann Penfold portray the shy, precociousIy taIented Bronte sisters; Michael Kitchen pIays Branwell, the brother whose life, ravaged by drink and drugs, ended at the age of 31, and Alfred Burke stars as the Reverend Patrick Bronte, the widowed father who would outIive all his children.
Tracing significant events and key periods, each member of the Bronte famiIy is brought vividly to life in this meticulousIy researched series. |
