Wuthering Heights

Wuthering Heights. Wuthering Heights.

I'm like, you know, withering heights.

I want to go see Wuthering Heights.

Wuthering Heights, which I just finished, a classic novel.

So for instance Wuthering Heights, and then something maybe newer and a bit more contemporary. So The Secret History by Donna Tartt or Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.

So we start with, of course, Wuthering Heights, the truth behind this iconic, famously kind of overwrought story and obviously reflecting a little bit on the new movie.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, published in 1847. It's set in 1801, but it's looking back even before that. And Tabby, it's one of the absolute canonical classics. And it's actually regarded, isn't it, as one of the great romantic novels.

I thought, oh, disappointing. It's not as good as Jane Eyre. Because I didn't really get into the kind of fever dream side of things. I frankly did get a little bit lost. And I thought to myself, this is going to be very self-incriminating. I thought to myself, this is a bit of a book for teenage girls.

And you might say, well, where does this come from in this sort of quite withdrawn, lonely, you know, very bookish girl? And an answer is she herself is quite violent.

We will be looking at thrilling Gothic bodice rippers like Wuthering Heights and Frankenstein, as well as iconic stories like The Great Gatsby or Little Women, and then also some more modern stuff.

like Dante and Beatrice and Heathcliff and Kathy may be mutually limerent at different times, but not the same time from Wuthering Heights.

Emerald Fennell's gothic reimagining of Wuthering Heights casting a powerful spell over moviegoers, especially women.

She was like, Wuthering Heights. Stick to the Seven Husbands and get a grab.

Honestly, I'm excited for Wuthering Heights.

I think you can do both because I'm reading Weathering Heights and I'm a big SLC fan.

I can tell you without seeing the film or having read the book and know nothing about it.

I have not read this book, but I have heard that it's not at all like what the movie is.

No. So it's so different from the book, but also the movie is so like, you leave it being like speechless, but not in a way that you believe in love.

It was just like... reading the synopsis of the book and you're like, this is even more traumatizing and different.

Like mentally abusive, emotionally abusive.

We were equally obsessed with Wuthering Heights and the Gospel according to Mark.

I saw that he'd made a post on the Wuthering Heights page that Emily Bronte was the weakest of the Bronte sisters.

So rugged, a peak district. Windy, it's wild.

Inspired books like Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre.

Emily Bronte's 1847 novel, Wuthering Heights, has been adapted for the screen numerous times. The latest version stars Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi as Bronte's ill-fated lovers, Catherine and Heathcliff, and opens in theaters this week.

More than a decade ago, The New Yorker published a piece titled Can Wuthering Heights Work on Screen? in which my now colleague Joshua Rothman argued that Emily Bronte's classic is beloved not just for its romance, but also for its strangeness, its intensity, and its violence.

The extravagant new movie, Wuthering Heights, written and directed by the English filmmaker Emerald Fennell, is very much in this vein. It could be the most reductive version of this material ever made.

She does the movie Wuthering Heights. It comes out here in a few weeks. Great book. Have you all read it? Yes. ... It's the only book I read in school. I skipped all the books but that one that they told us to read. ... It's like a love story, isn't it?

I remember reading enough to do my homework in like fourth grade. Good stuff. Anyway, that movie's coming out here in a few weeks. Wuthering Heights are lovers.

Are you going to go see Wuthering Heights? Apparently a very hot, hot thriller, romantic, Margot Robbie. I heard it's very hot, very steamy. I will only go if...

What I read is, the thing is, it's, like, very hot, you know, sex scenes, but everyone keeps their clothes on. I don't know. I didn't learn it that way.

I can't even talk about Emily Bront in front of this person.

Okay. So books are the enemy. So that way they figure out who's infected and books are then seized and taken to... This is what they did in Bradford. They took it to the hospital for patients to use.
