To Walk Invisible: A Unique Biopic

The cast and creator on how "To Walk Invisible The Bronte Sisters" is not your usual Bronte biopic, and certainly not to be missed. See it Sunday, March 26, 2017 at 9/8c on MASTERPIECE on PBS. #BronteSistersPBS

I found myself bursting into tears at the end of this movie. Powerful, evocative and unflinchingly realistic. Their inner tensions and family dynamic were revealed in such a way as to leave me in no doubt as to their individual genius and collective strength.

Everyone should visit the Bronte Parsonage it’s stunning

[@pamelahicks517]

I'm definitely going to watch this. It will be a stark contrast to Victoria. I love how PBS productions have such high standards. I always feel like I take a trip back in time. The realism is extraordinary, appreciated and compelling compared to the films and TV shows that are being churned out these days. Most are forgettable. Thank you PBS for always producing quality entertainment.

This is actually a BBC and Open University production. It just aired on PBS in America.

[@modestmaude8367]

I have seen the film already, but will definitely be watching it again on PBS. It is truly a brilliant & authentic biopic!

[@caoimhec7697]

Excellent movie, especially Charlie Murphy’s performance as Anne🙂

[@torbenretboll2841]

This drama does not cover the lives of the Bronte sisters from the beginning to the end. It covers only the last three years of Branwell's life. The time frame is 1845-1848.

It was so emotional and touching

[@AlyssaGubler83]

This is a real masterpiece, I love it!!

[@wallflower1852]

Why can't we have shows like this in the Philippines? Truly, Britain is sophisticated when it comes to making period dramas. Any people who loves watching shows like this has class and are intelligent. :)

I like their books especially jane eyre

[@AnnaBellaChannel]

Earthly and grounded are what the Bronte's are all about.

[@jimburke3801]

Nice to see Branwell getting attention too. Gone also are the usual posh accents we get in productions about the Brontes. Seems real and not a case of putting modern views in to suit today's audience.

[@torbenretboll2841]

Branwell gets much more attention than he deserves. Obviously, he must be in the story. But he is not only in it; he is dominating it. I think he gets as much screen time as the three sisters combined. This is not right. This is a shame.

[@jimburke3801]

It is interesting to see Branwell getting attention, he usually doesn't. He didn't write a book or books so I suppose he's not regarded as special enough to give coverage to. He was close to Emily and it's been hinted at more than once that he had a hand in writing Wuthering Heights. Who knows?

To Walk Invisible is a wonderful movie, and I've watched it several times. The major criticism has to do with those accents, as well as the very bad audio, which drew numerous complaints from viewers when it first aired. As far as the accents go, the Bronte women did NOT speak with either posh London OR Yorkshire accents. As reported by those who knew them, they spoke with the same Irish accent as their father, Patrick. As far as the difficulties in understanding what they were saying, part of the problem was poor audio quality, and part was the apparent decision on the part of the actresses playing the 3 sisters to mumble, whisper, and talk so fast (in those Yorkshire accents that the girls in reality did not have), so as to too often make it impossible to hear what they were saying. Everyone else in the cast spoke distinctly but not these three. Evidently they were aiming for some sort of Brando-esque realism. Even if you have normal hearing, subtitles need to be on.

@@torbenretboll2841 I agree. I actually read an article the other day that suggested that his addiction and him spiraling out of control somehow influenced the sisters when it came to their writing. That's seriously giving him way too much credit for being nothing more than an alcoholic failure.

[@steveellis9004]

Emily in a heated argument with Charlotte in the script : " Why are you so dramatic? ".

[@musicloverlondon6070]

It looks somewhat overdone, judging by the trailer. After all, self-control was seen as very important in those days and not just in the public sphere. I can certainly imagine Emily being passionately angry about her poems being taken and read, but not her being physically aggressive. It looks like it was done more for dramatic effect than authenticity. Still, none of us was there so who knows. I will always love the Bronte books and poems either way.

[@takouhiejensen6205]

I've seen several films about the Brontes and studied them in getting my English degree. I LOVE this film. The way is depicted the sisters, I feel, is totally on point with what others wrote about them. The best out there. Could have done without the sex scene though.

[@fatimagillani510]

Where can i watch this movie

[@garyeaton6172]

I’ve been there and I know

[@user-nx8wm8lk9q]

Where can I find full movie?

[@maam-yj8ph]

Amazon Prime has it available.

[@okejee3455]

I will have to watch this several times to see if I can understand what is being said....the actors sound like they have a mouth full of mush.....the heavy accent did not help but the music playing while they talked made it just impossible at times.

[@torbenretboll2841]

When the drama premiered on British television, many viewers complained that they could not follow the dialogue, because the background musical score was too loud. If you have the DVD, you can turn on the subtitles. This way you can understand what is being said.

[@2charliep]

They used a perfectly normal Yorkshire accent, used no dialect or colloquial language (take a look at Wuthering Heights and you’ll see what I mean), if they’d used anything else the cry of “fake” would’ve been deafening and rightly so. Separating the sisters from the way they spoke to suit others would’ve been an insult.
