WILD NIGHTS WITH EMILY (2018) - Lesbian Interest Film (USA)

Emily and Susan

Wild Nights with Emily (2018), is a lesbian interest film, about the enduring love story between Emily Dickinson, the iconic American poet and her brother's wife Susan. The film focuses on the relationship between Emily and Susan from girlhood to Emily's death in 1886. We see love blossom between the couple from a few stolen kisses as girls to a mature relationship full of passion, physical intimacy and connection.

Set in the mid 19th century the film bucks the notion that Emily was completely reclusive instead we are shown an Emily who bakes gingerbread for local children, gardens and lives a full life of family, quiet reflection and intimacy.

Only 11 of her poems were ever published in her life time despite her prolificacy. We are shown a women who is faced with a string of male editors who not understanding her work and her genius act as gatekeepers to publication.

Ironically it is Mabel Todd, her brother's mistress, who with an eye for the main chance, spots Emily's brilliance and seeks to gain fame for herself by promoting Emily's poems posthumously. Luckily Sue's daughter who has a lot more insight into the true nature of her mother's relationship with Emily is able to set the historical record straight somewhat.

Molly Shannon shines as Emily in this movie as does Susan Ziegler as Sue. Wild Nights with Emily (#wildnightswithemily) is both entertaining and refreshing. Its comic treatment to lighten the drama is a delight in a biographical film. The movie deserves a much higher rating than the 6.0 currently awarded on IMDb.
