Wuthering Heights (2026)

Hornier, dumber, funnier, and more gorgeous than expected. A mixed bag I enjoyed. I had fun with it, even if it didn’t fully land.

Three films in, I do see a consistent theme in Emerald Fennell’s work. She likes making movies about lower status characters who violently fight the system, claw their way up the ranks, and sometimes get rich doing it. Promising Young Woman, Saltburn, now this. The pattern is clear.

Which is weird, because she was born into a mega rich family and has stayed mega rich. I don’t fully understand why she resonates so highly with these themes. There’s a disconnect there I can’t quite reconcile. Maybe that’s the point. Maybe it’s not. I don’t know.

Still fun though. Still gorgeous. Still horny as hell.
