Summary
Cynthia Nixon gives a career-best, tour-de-force performance as the legendary 19th Century poet Emily Dickinson in Terence Davies' A Quiet Passion. Born into privilege in 1830, Emily Dickinson spent most of her life on her parents' estate in Armherst, Massachusetts. In her youth, the introverted Emily is depicted as a fiercely intelligent young woman who exchanges forthright opinions on life and art and, more particularly, on the place of women in a patriarchal society
