A β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… review of Wuthering Heights (2026) Here's the thing: I like Emerald Fennell's films, I like Wuthering Heights the book, I like Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, I like Charli XCX's music. I like all of these things, butβ€”andβ€”I still think...

More to come, but spent a minute on some (less) quick (than I thought) notes on loving this specific Wuthering Heights in an age where money talks and sincerity is hard to come by! boxd.it/cYeTSB

In this house we have always loved Oliver Coates (who's a very big reason why I think this film is actually very good!)

My Oscars two cents: thrilled for Sinners, thrilled for Train Dreams, thrilled for Wagner bummed for Daniel Lopatin's Marty Supreme score, bummed for Chase Infiniti, bummed for No Other Choice, really really bummed for The Testament of Ann Lee, bemused by the lack of Wicked, enraged by Elio. ty!

Forgot to do the lil tease but we spoke about the very holy nature of good chairs, weird musicals, jagged and raw choreo and how radical feminism terrifies a lot of people!
