:45-1:48 Best and most realistic crying scene in a movie. EVER! It's so raw and real and just...amazing. The part where she cries out his name was heartwrenching. The whole ending made me cry. A beautiful film that a beautiful poet like Keats, deserves.

I was explaining this scene to my husband and burst out crying. This was one of the most honest and moving reactions to a loved ones death that I have ever seen on film. Abbie Cornish is an amazing actress and I can't wait to see what else she does next. Brilliant!

@littlemissflo How can you say "it should be"? Modern reality still includes love like this and love can't deal with how things should be, it's the opposite.

This breaks me every single time. My eyes were welling up even in anticipation of watching this clip as it loaded. So beautiful and so tragic.. and so far removed from modern reality. If you're going to experience love.. it should be as raw and as real as this.

Still makes me cry every time! Beautiful movie.

My god, I'm freaking sobbing uncontrollably! It's amazing, you can feel every emotion of pain and heartbreak with every intake of breath from fanny. It's absolutly heart wenching but at the same time, pure brilliance for how well it was put together. The emotion is astounding and I feel so bad for Fanny. So sad...

When I finished this movie I felt like my heart had broken. I felt like we had actually lost the actor who played him. I even knew what was going to happen but I still felt the same blow. This crying scene is so real. She cries the same way any would in real life. FantasticT-T

I never cry in movies, but I cried when I watched this.
