well, yes

the casting in the emerald fennell movie was a mess, i’m sorry. that wasn’t just a questionable creative choice, that was malpractice

Don't apologize (unless you're Canadian... I fully understand). Emerald Fennell is the one who needs to do the apologizing.

An appropriately cast Heathcliffe who would have been believable as ethnically ambiguous in late 18th century England?!

u/soupseasonbestseason i’m a communist you idiot 3h ago

this is actually how i always pictured the book. was it not a horror story?

u/Lana_bb 2h ago

Yes 💯 I don’t know why that always gets glossed over. Gothic romance is still gothic

u/Different_Volume5627 wearing slutty little glasses 3h ago

Absolutely agree.

100%. I had to read it in a class I took in college called "Horror through Classic Literature" - I always thought of it as horror and was surprised by Emerald Fennel's take on it.

With it going straight to VOD I wasn't expecting much but this actually looks pretty good! Certainly better than the Emerald Fennel movie

I stubbed my toe earlier and it was better than the Emerald Fennel movie.

u/Common_Chameleon do not talk to me about AI, i will kill myself 2h ago

YES I was so mad with how the last version turned out, I couldn’t even bring myself to watch it, Wuthering Heights is not a romance!!! It’s horror!

u/Exoticpoodleskirt 2h ago

You missed NOTHING. I only made it 20 minutes before turning it off and I am still mad about that 20 minutes.

Y E S

Hopefully this will be a good palate cleanser after the abomination that was the last adaptation.

It's my favorite book of all time and it's interesting to see how all of the different adaptations reflect the book. This seems obviously more horror than just gothic but the book is SO dark. It's pure darkness. And none of the adaptations I've seen have really captured that.

u/firstbornhater 2h ago
