Historical queer romances are having a moment. From 2018’s Colette to HBO’s Gentleman Jack, women who loved women in the 19th century are being recognized as the LGBTQ pioneers that they were. Chanya Button’s Vita and Virginia is another entry in this canon’s ongoing creation, but aside from its focus on the affair of its central protagonists, the film doesn’t quite capture the same intensely forward-moving energy as its spiritual predecessors.
, women who loved women in the 19th century are being recognized as the LGBTQ pioneers that they were. Chanya Button’sis another entry in this canon’s ongoing creation, but aside from its focus on the affair of its central protagonists, the film doesn’t quite capture the same intensely forward-moving energy as its spiritual predecessors.centers on the authors Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf and the affair they start after they meet briefly at a party.
Arterton’s Vita is energetic, determined and full of life, and she plays to Vita’s hunger for excitement and adventure. Her writing career thrills her, but she is constantly in search of the next, more thrilling thing. Debicki’s Virginia is haunted; in her first appearance, she is dancing dreamily at a costume party, ethereal in her beauty and breezily unconcerned with Vita’s eyes on her. But Virginia’s unattainable air is quickly upended.
Debecki shines as the doomed writer, imbuing her with all the tragic undertones of a woman at war with her own mind.
