About this listen
This week on After the Frame, we dive into Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights (2026) — a bold retelling that looks stunning, feels soaked in atmosphere, and swings hard for gothic intensity. For a lot of its runtime, it’s gripping in that “can’t look away” way… and then the final stretch gets shaky.
We break down what worked and what didn’t: the film’s striking visual language, the heavy tone, and the clear directorial point of view, alongside a third act that struggles to stick the emotional landing. We talk about what the movie is trying to say about obsession and cruelty, where the storytelling pulls its punches, and why it ends up being more compelling in pieces than as a whole.
If you’re into messy romance, bleak vibes, and ambitious adaptations that spark debate, this one’s for you.
