Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud (October 20, 1854November 10, 1891) was a French poet, born in Charleville. His influence on modern literature, music and art has been pervasive. He produced his best known works while still in his late teens—Victor Hugo described him at the time as "an enfant Shakespeare"—and gave up creative writing altogether before he reached 21. He remained a prolific letter-writer all his life. Rimbaud was a restless soul, travelling extensively in three continents before his premature death from cancer less than a month after his 37th birthday.

Film

The life of Verlaine and Rimbaud was the subject of the 1995 movie Total Eclipse, directed by Agnieszka Holland and with a screenplay by Christopher Hampton, based on his play. Verlaine was portrayed by David Thewlis.
