Seems all a bit silly. Hopefully someone will yell ‘It’s wutherin time’
The only “Wuthering Heights” film that stands the test of time is the the Kate Bush red dress one.
There. I said it.I love that Kate hadn’t even read the book, and based the song on what she imagined it must be like.
I can’t imagine having that much passionate about fucking Wuthering Heights…. I mean, what the fuck world?
As a Yorkshireman from Bronte country living in Australia I hereby give the filmmakers permission to have Heathcliffe walk in and say “G’day boys”.
Haven’t seen it but many theorised the film would be a story of two lovers who discover and then re-enact/re-live the tale of Wuthering Heights together, rather than the actual tale of Wuthering heights. Hence the commas in the title, and the anachronisms in design.
If that is the case, pretty much nothing to be annoyed about. If not, then hell yeah, even I might be annoyed.
But viewers shouldn’t be annoyed that it isn’t a perfect retelling when we’ve already had 5 or more on screen adaptations of Wuthering Heights.
