The piece is by Henry Purcell, called Hornpipe in B flat Major Z T683. It originally comes from the incidental music for "Abdelazar, or The Moor's Revenge", a tragedy by Aphra Behn (1677).

The picture at :42 reminds of that one famous portrait of Keats where he's starting off into the distance.

The picture at 1: 27 is sooo sweet!

And the music is beautiful! Sounds like something that would be played at a wedding! Can't wait to see this movie, it looks amazing!

What a charming looking movie I look forward to seeing this.

I have reincarnated John Keats in several virtual movies at my poetryanimations youtube channel which i hope some of you might enjoy seeing.Most recently I have made one of Keats reading his love letter to Fanny Brawne of course I was inspired to make it by this movie.

Kind Regards
