The buzz is in for Emerald Fennell’s fresh take on Wuthering Heights following its premiere in LA last night (January 28), and the feedback is overwhelmingly positive. Viewers are raving about the film’s stunning visuals, meticulous craftsmanship, and the electric chemistry between the lead actors.

“Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights is a scorching hot and twisted tale,” notes a reviewer. “Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi’s chemistry and sexual tension is a whole other level of HOT! Only Emerald could take a classic, turn it on its head, make you fall completely in lust, and then utterly destroy your soul. An exquisite spectacle of craftsmanship that left me salivating over the costumes, cinematography, and production design. Obsessively in love with it.”

“Wuthering Heights is utter perfection,” says another. “It’s not only visually impeccable with vibrancy and breathtaking shots, but this movie is the epitome of YEARNING. It will make you feel absolutely EVERYTHING during and afterwards. I loved everything about this film.”

“Fall in love again and again with Emerald Fennell’s imagining of Wuthering Heights,” another tweet reads. “From its gorgeous set design and costumes, striking cinematography, and bombastic music, the film leans into the passion and obsession of Catherine and Heathcliff’s torrid love story.”
