heyyy wuthering heights 2026 fans um. woman to woman.
how are you guys getting so distracted by jacob elordi's fingers that you slide into passive racism by ignoring the obvious anti-intellectualist dialogue surrounding the new wuthering heights movie ("it's not that deep" "it's just a fantasy") and refusing to critically engage with fennell's choices to take the story of a racialized young man perpetuating a cycle of trauma and abuse first imposed on him by his white adoptive family because of his race and class, and to instead turn it into a Hot Sexy Film With Emerald's Self-Insert.
how are you justifying turning the cruel, casually racist, status-quo upholding white man edgar linton into a submissive person of color who also manages to somehow lord his status over the Poor White Boy. oh yeah how about fennell leaving out the fact that heathcliff's abuse is in many ways directly tied to his race. what about her deciding to make nelly an asian person and give her a much more active role in preventing cathy and heathcliff together, thus making both 'villains' of the movie people of color. do you guys really think it means nothing that fennell did all that.
enjoy the movie for the sex, do whatever you like. but like. guys please you can enjoy the aesthetics and sexuality of the film while also thinking a little bit about why emerald fennell changed the things that she did and how that correlates to our greater sociocultural climate. come on
