Review of To Walk Invisible: The Brontë Sisters

This drama was in my opinion the best attempt yet to accurately portray the Bronte family who lived in very difficult times and circumstances. It was gritty, real and brutal. The effects of Branwell's addictive personality were clearly shown, with the destructiveness not only on himself but the whole family. The struggles of women writers in those times were a true test of character, and I loved the way the drama showed this and how the sisters overcame all obstacles with determination, courage and grit, with Charlotte at the helm. She was the main force in obtaining publication. All three sisters were remarkable, all in their own way. The drama was filmed in the actual Haworth parsonage, it was as vivid a recreation as it is possible to get, the personalities were spot on, the accents, and family dynamics. Spot on. ten out of ten!
