Movie Reviews and Previews Yearning and gloop in “Wuthering Heights” Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of “Wuthering Heights” (“based” on the “novel” by “Emily Brontë”) is not a faithful adaptation of that novel; it’s full of deliberately anachronistic choices, and it has a very specific style palette that you will either love or hate. These are just facts. At a By Sarah • Feb 12, 2026 12:12 pm
Style Margot, Emerald, Charli, and Hong: The Four Corsets Every premiere is a big deal but for Emerald Fennell’s “Wuthering Heights”, being that Emily Brontë’s book was set in Yorkshire, and the moors are such a big part of the story, the London premiere is the crown on the calendar that is the press tour for the By Lainey • Feb 05, 2026 04:07 pm
Style Big Dresses at Wuthering Heights "Wuthering Heights" promo continues apace, with the premiere happening in Los Angeles last night. It was a night of Big Dresses.

Jacob Elordi Jacob and Olivia… again and again Back in the summer, it was reported that Jacob Elordi and Olivia Jade Giannulli had broken up.

The new trailer also features new By Sarah • Nov 14, 2025 12:32 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Wuthering Heights is for the sickos Somehow, we’re only four months away from the year two thousand and twenty-six. Scientists can probably explain, but I am sure that it is, ultimately, the sun’s fault. But that does mean that 2026 movies are on the horizon, including Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights, about which there By Sarah • Sep 04, 2025 09:45 am

Quiveration Barry Keoghan: Murder and Candles I mentioned, briefly, a few weeks before the holidays last year that the way some of you feel about Paul Mescal is how I feel about Barry Keoghan. He is currently my biggest western celebrity crush. In team meetings at work, whenever he comes out, I can’t speak. I By Lainey • Jan 03, 2024 11:21 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Barry Keoghan in Saltburn Emerald Fennell’s directorial debut, Promising Young Woman, is a scorched-earth cinematic lambasting of rape culture. Her sophomore effort, Saltburn, is considerably less furious, a little less focused, and a lot more perverted. Barry Keoghan stars as Oliver Quick, a “scholarship case” at Oxford who doesn’t fit in with By Sarah • Nov 24, 2023 12:30 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Saltburn with a side of murder We are one month away from Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn, which looks like a f-cked up fairytale with a dash of classism and…human sacrifice?

Oscars 2021 Emerald Fennell brings “shady pottery teacher” vibes to the Oscars Emerald Fennell won her first Oscar last night, taking Best Original Screenplay for Promising Young Woman, one of the most deserved wins of the night.
