Wuthering Heights

[GCAcademic]

Anyone planning to see this? From the trailer I was expecting it to be marmite and not in any way a straight adaptation of the novel, but the reviews I've seen so far are universally uncomplimentary. I'd already booked to see it, so will go in with an open mind!

I have yet to read a good review, so I might swerve. But I’m a big fan of Emerald Fennell, so I might change my mind.

Like the PP above, the reviews have put me off. I’ll see it when it comes on streaming.

I’ve admired her previous films, and don’t mind utterly bonkers as a creative theme. But I’m really not keen on either of the two main actors - and I’ve never cared for Wuthering Heights. ()

Even with a ‘free’ cinema membership ticket it’s probably more than I could tolerate.

I'm not really into BDSM, so won't be seeing it.

I’ll update after I’ve seen it. I have mixed feelings about Emerald Fennell, and am worried she may have peaked with Promising Young Woman.

I’ve booked tickets for Friday 20th Feb! I think it’ll be like marmite too. I can’t wait!

I had an open mind about it but the trailer looks a bit naff. I'm probably a bit traditional when it comes to WH .I did think Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi came across well on Graham last Friday though.If a friend really wants to see it at the cinema I'll go with them but otherwise think I'll wait to watch in the comfort of my one home.

I enjoyed Saltburn but it was a great watch at home film.

I finished reading the book this morning for the first time so I’m interested in seeing this interpretation.

Im looking forward to it - love the book and love Emerald Fennel

Yes planning on going tho I’m thinking it’s going to be a case of you either love it or hate it

I finished reading the book today for the umpteenth time so I'm interested in seeing it, though I'll have to wait until it's streaming as no cinemas where I am. No doubt there'll be elements I like and others I hate, just like the other adaptations of it.

Not a fan of Emerald Fennell. She’s too much of a twee person trying to be edgy for my tastes but Wuthering Heights is my favourite book and I have an annual cinema pass so I’ll probably give it a go.

I don’t there’s ever been a great adaptation of it that really gets into the darkness of the book, so I’m really expecting much.

Jacob Elordi was so good in Netflix's Frankenstein that I really don't won't to ruin that impression with a less than brilliant performance in this.

What did you think to the book?

I’m going on Saturday and I’m looking forward to it!

Big fan of the book, I am worried but my curiosity has got the better of me and I’m going on Friday

I suppose it can’t be any worse than the. Cliff Richard version which I will admit to having watched!

Nothing can be better than the Kate Bush version. It’s just impossible.

I don’t think I could put myself though the butchering of the Bradford accents

I’m going to see it on Friday with my 15 year old DD … suspect I’m gonna be sitting on my hands to not keep covering her eyes! But she said she wanted to see it with me … gotta take these opportunities with teenagers!

No, the trailer did nothing for me. I have no desire to see the film.

Surely they can't be any worse than Juliette Binoche's accent in that version.

I was confused by Cathy appearing to have a completely different accent to Heathcliff in the trailer 😅

Not seen that version but can imagine!!
