John Keats is not, in fact, a fictional character and did speak and write poetically. The story is based on real events and real dialogues between the two lovers, all of which is historically accurate.

Though Hollywood does an excellent job of warping reality for today’s youth. True love stories such as that of Keats and Brawne allow us to believe in something more.

Movies like this promote unattainable standards for men in our society.

They also promote unattainable standards of beauty for women in the way of thinness, complex, etc etc.

Let’s redefine what to expect from each other and not give in to Hollywood standards.
