Anne Bronte The Final Journey

Bay Video Productions 2015

[@kithale316]

I have been to Anne's grave in the quiet churchyard. I laid flowers and the peace and beauty of the place was tangible.

[@markhodgson2348]

Yes I like to do that I will try and get there for her birthday

[@markhodgson2348]

It certainly is

[@degsbabe]

Its a shame their idiot father did'nt move them all there sooner. Instead of that water polluted hole Haworth.

[@roelienpostma2367]

Agnes Gray is such an intense reading. Such wonderfull description of feelings. I had to stop now and then for sheer emotion.....

[@OwenAbc]

This was fantastic. Thank you very much! I'm visiting Haworth tomorrow for a week. It will be my first time. Your video made me very emotional.

[@Jabberstax]

Wonderful and detailed documentary on the final days of Anne Brontë.

[@NEMO-NEMO]

They wrote so beautifully. I read and re read their books, simply to be taken back to a time when lifes’ expressions through words was lyrical and deep with richness of vocabulary and for the beauty of a good story. Thank you Brontë girls.

[@deaconpaulsandersonocds4103]

An outstanding short documentary on Annes final moments.

[@argentinagalos6205]

A sensitive documentary which pays a well deserved tribute to one of the three geniuses of world literature-the Brontes. Thank you for taking the effort of reinforcing the power of their literary creation !

[@anneclaffey2843]

Well said, Ann! I found this video extraordinarily moving. I'm still bawling 😢😢😢. Too right Anne was underrated for too long. Whereas I read Emily and Charlotte in my teens, I only came to Anne as an adult. She's probably the most "modern" of the Brontës. Shame on the author of the introduction to the Penguin copy of "Wuthering Heights" which I had back in the 1970s who described Anne as "the least original" of the sisters! This certainly influenced my neglect of Anne's work and I'm sure many others were so foolish 🙄 As you observe towards the end, Ann, she would have been regarded as a genius in any other family. Lol ⚘

[@stephen5548]

Fantastic family. Gentle Anne was just as much part of the powerhouse of that wondrous family.

[@hannahsophievantrampe740]

Thank you for this. It was so beautiful. I love the story of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall it is so brilliant.

[@lizjohnson6324]

Have walked there many times and was soooo moved by the books and the very landscape that they wrote about .If you love this family and it’s storyies do come and walk the moor’s you will feel that they are with you .x

[@markallen5764]

I was at the parsonage a couple of years back and Ann dinsdale was behind the counter serving at the shop and signed my book She is amazing and has the knowledge of the brontes She certainly knows everything and such a calm lovely spoken lady ❤ Becky 🇬🇧 xx Thankyou anne dinsdale it was a fantastic honour for me to actually meet you 😊 ❤

[@tommytraddles]

@@degsbabeYes, lovely people. Didn’t you get to meet them?

[@degsbabe]

Rather meet them than tw@theadtraddles.

[@fizzao1342]

Thank you for this. Anne is my favourite of the Brontë sisters. I love her gentle strength and resolution.

[@markhodgson2348]

I would have love to have met her ❤

[@crabstick250]

This documentary is from 2015, but a friend shared with me. Thank you so much. A lovely and inciteful as well as very moving study of Ann's last days. Charlotte's grief must have been overwhelming. Thank you again.

[@melenatorr]

Thank you for this wonderful tribute to Anne, especially your kind, strong, thoughtful summary. Anne was gentle, but she was strong as well; there are several bits of evidence in her actions as a governess, and her poetry attests to this too, especially "Self Communion", which is a brave, unflinching self examination; and the Last Lines. The only wish I have after this is that you might have read us some of her last poem so that her struggle and her resolution could be shared with as many people as click on this video. Thank you again.

[@Mrsnidderdalehouse]

I found this evocative and rather heartbreaking and beautifully presented,and also very moving. been a Yorkshire lass, I've always had a fascination for the Brontes and have been to Haworth many times.

[@townsendv58]

Fantastic documentary.

[@morriganwitch]

Beautiful

[@CasAshworth1]

Thank you for this really lovely heartfelt and detailed video. Very moving true story 💕

[@thehistory_student]

Thoroughly enjoyed this documentary, thank you 🙏

[@LorraineWeston-t9j]

Very moving♥

[@58angieb]

Heartbreaking, especially in light of having read 'Agnes Grey',& 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall'. Thank you.

[@mandymichaels6131]

I think Anne would be the strong fighter in the family, An animal activist, a woman of strong substance fighting the bad, mad with all her might not shy to feel or explain her thinking or what some men of it's time might suggest in modern times. spiritual, soft gentle Anne no words abound what she might have been if only woman could speak'' openly as Anne wrote in her novel The Tennent of Wildfell hall. A book very different to the moody broody Emily's Wuthering heights or Charlotte's Jane Eyre. We should all take courage so very sad she died so young.

[@josephinerimmer6888]

Very very moving. Thank you so much.

[@voicemesmerising9771]

Wow fantastic, I love u so much💞

[@carmellarkin4803]

Beautiful. Thank you.

[@judithgrace9850]

Hola from Queretaro. God will take care. 82 and trust God. A

[@morriganwitch]

Wow I stayed at the Grand and never knew xxx

[@mikejohnson599]

nicely done wish i could have walked the moors to top withers in this lifetime but maybe in the next

[@markhodgson2348]

I wish I could have talked with Anne and sat with her watching the bathing huts , and as we walked on the beach sharing ideas .............

[@steveellis9004]

Suggested viewing for you. A four - part drama series from Yorkshire Television. The Brontes of Haworth. It's free on KZbin. Highly recommend.

[@cecilecochet6198]

Vous êtes obligée de nous garder en vie

[@voicemesmerising9771]

Nice explanation

[@kyleethekelt]

Oh, that is desperately sad.

[@rosaliegolding5549]

Music very loud although beautiful but distracting

[@amysilin8122]

The voice over narrator is speaking in such a quiet voice it was a challenge to hear. What a shame.

[@tommytraddles]

Ever thought of getting your ears syringed?

[@susansirges8978]

Unfortunately the crowing in the background practically obliterates the reading and tales so interesting of this family.

[@BrontëChick]

I understand the reasoning for Anne being buried in Scarborough....she did love it there, and another funeral so soon after the two recent ones would be hard on Mr. Bronte, but it kind of sounded like Anne wanted to be home for her passing. I have always found it sad that she isn't with the rest of the family. I think it would be nice if Anne could be moved and they could all be together again. Just mho.

[@tommytraddles]

Fantastic documentary. Amazed by the complaints about the sound. I had no problem hearing every word. Perhaps some of the viewers are more used to Marvel movies.

[@lizjohnson6324]

Just must say Emily was my favourite Wuthering height’s if that’s how it was spelt was my favourite book .

[@everynewdayisablessing8509]

No, that's not how it is spelt. Maybe revisit your primary school grammar book. Plural for height is heights, not height's. But you're right that the book is great.

[@georgeionita7307]

The hope for her life determined her last jurney . Unfortunately antybiotics did not exist and many Young people died .

[@catherinemelnyk]

I found the crows distracting. But it was informative.

[@twpsy634]

Oh,I loved them.They are a constant in UK graveyards.

[@jenrutherford6690]

Had to give up on this due to an inability to hear over the birds and music. What I could hear was great.

[@moriahargall135]

Please add captions. Trying to listen to soft-spoken, accented English through background music and loud crows was not worth the effort.

[@tommytraddles]

It would have been well worth “the effort”. Pity you give up so easily.

[@zin153]

The narrator is often drowned out by music and the hideous squawking of birds.

[@twpsy634]

Crows are far from hideous.Highly intelligent birds

[@ThePatterofTinyPaws]

I agree. Her voice is monotonous and the music too loud when she's speaking. A nice documentary though, despite that.

[@jenrutherford6690]

@@twpsy634 yes wonderful intelligent birds who are loving this annoying cameo.

[@rlabarbera]

the music is unbearably annoying

[@anniepeacock724]

Can’t hear this as the background music and squawking birds are way too loud. Shame as I love the subject.

[@tommytraddles]

You obviously don’t “love the subject” enough to concentrate. Sad.

[@eliotreader8220]

didn't know that they used such a word as that

[@larciabella]

Charlotte in the end questioned Anne's subject matter in Tenant.Was this a jealous sibling?

[@mikerainham]

I don’t think so, I think it was so avoid controversy and the contrast Charlotte portrayed of Anne as sweet natured and uncomplicated didn’t sit well with the controversial subject matter of Tenant. Anne appears to be strong willed and prepared to challenge social ills, strong in mind but of a delicate constitution.

[@markhodgson2348]

Yes but didn't manage to get away from the soot and the disease ,its hard to think of howarth being like that

[@shipaskof8371]

Horrid that people developef a conspiracy that charlotte murdered her sisters with arsenic

[@MerOracle]

TB usually takes many years to develop. 3 siblings dying one after another within a few months is strange indeed if the cause was TB. Also, neither Charlotte nor the father contracted it. Let's just say something was not quite right.

[@pemmieii]

I want to be there after reading Tenant of Wildfell Hall and her sisters’ books. Not rockstars but die young, these broads. The brother is incompetent tho. After i earn enough money i will get out the shithole which is my country and visit Yorkshire

[@talex1625]

Please don't. I don't think Yorkshire wants you.

[@anneclaffey2843]

Broads! A bit of respect for these women authors, please.

[@musicloverlondon6070]

I'm sure your country also has its worthy writers, artists and places to visit. Most places across the globe have something unique to offer.

[@sunkintree]

Even his own sisters would not call Branwell incompetent. He was the first of the Bronte children to be published. He just fell down a personal spiral, but it's comforting (for what reason?) to put others down

[@markhodgson2348]

Charlotte sounds horrible so jealous

[@Smile-rd5fn]

Nice but the room interiors are boring
