Cynthia Nixon in First Trailer for Terence Davies' Film 'A Quiet Passion'

“You are alone in your rebellion, Ms. Dickinson.” Get ready to be enthralled by the words and emotions of Emily Dickinson. A festival trailer has debuted for the film A Quiet Passion, from director Terence Davis (whose other film Sunset Song was just released in theaters this year). Cynthia Nixon stars as the legendary poet Emily Dickinson in this “luminous biopic”. Also starring Jennifer Ehle, Keith Carradine, Duncan Duff, Jodhi May, Joanna Bacon and Catherine Bailey. These kind of intense period pieces aren’t usually my thing, and I’m not that curious about this. However, the music they used for this trailer definitely got my attention. It’s the track “Stars Wait For Us” by Plu-Ton and it seems odd, but totally works. ›››
