Born in Boston, MA, in 1932, Plath developed a talent as a writer and published her first poem when she was eight years old. That same year, Plath was forced to confront the unexpected death of her father. In 1950, she began studying at Smith College on a literary scholarship. In 1955, she was granted a Fulbright Scholarship to study in England at Cambridge. There, Plath met Ted Hughes, a respected author. The two fell in love, and married in 1958. However, marriage, family, and a growing reputation as an important poet failed to bring Plath happiness.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Very somber submitted by mandevil on January 5, 2021, 7:23pm It’s hard to show the thoughts and struggles of a poet. This film does a good job. Daniel Craig is gorgeous but overall the film is difficult to watch.
