Here we go again, an adaptation made for the "modern audience'. Why is a 35 year old actress playing Cathy? Cathy died when she was around 18. The last decent period drama might be Austen's "Emma" with Anya Taylor Joy in 2020. Everything after that has involved race swapping and major departures from the source material.

"Wuthering Heights" the Emily Bronte book stunk.
"Wuthering Heights" the Kate Bush song is great.

Why is a 35 year old actress playing Cathy? Cathy died when she was around 18. Marketing. Because hearing "Margot Robbie" and "BDSM Sex" in the same sentence is going to get people talking, as we are doing right now.

I don’t even want to know what BDSM means. These gay acronyms are so weird.

I don’t think the gay sex did anything for Outlander, other than detract from the story line.

The feature opens with a public hanging that sees the condemned man 'ejaculate mid-execution'. His agony sends the crowd into an 'orgiastic frenzy' and a nun reportedly fondles 'the corpse's visible erection'. ok that made me laugh until my belly hurt. this is the most ridiculous over the top silliness. this would have made a good monty python skit but they had better taste, which says a lot

So that’s what “wuthering” means.

I tried to make “Margot Robbie stupid whore” the #1 drop-down choice on google by searching for that every day but eventually gave up.
It might still happen if everybody joins in.

The function of the production is to convey a political message
The producer should be drawn and quartered for such a travesty.

It’s Regietheater. Taken from East German directors in the 1960’s, it pushes social activism of what the director wants (smut) and destroys the message of classical literature, theater, et al. Heather MacDonald’s “The Abduction of Opera” is a must read regarding the issue.
Regietheater has destroyed so many great works.

BDSM always sounds provocative in theory but when put on the screen, turns out to be cringy or unintentionally comical.

In my top five favorite books list. The best movie version was with Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche.
This sounds like a sick porno version that Bob Guccione would have puked up.
No thanks.
