Not long ago our friends at Lemon Hound posted an amusing and instructive take on “Bright Star”, a film by Jane Campion - all very pretty and rather insubstantial from someone who should have known better and been moved more.
A wonderful antidote is this reading by British actor Douglas Hodge of Keats’s “Ode to a Nightingale”, surely one of the finest lyric poems ever written. Listen.

Hodge does lovely justice to Keats
and his ode-- this music that
can no longer be composed.
