The new Wuthering Heights movie shouldā€™ve just been a new story. If you canā€™t nail the central theme of racist classism and gothic, self-destructive romance with criminally flawed characters, then what business do you have to pervert the name ā€œWuthering Heightsā€ into some white washed smut fest.

HEATED IM HEATED bro. Not to mention making the poc characters (who werenā€™t poc in the books) into the ā€œbad guysā€ is just likeā€¦ are you fr??? ARE YOU FR?!? Letā€™s put aside the blatant racism and just acknowledge how much it cheapens the story. CHEAPENED IT SM šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ§

The ā€œbad guysā€? I didnā€™t interpret them as the bad guys at all.

Kinda felt that way about Del Toroā€™s Frankenstein. The story is about how monsters are made by the monstrous behavior inflicted on them. By erasing every bad act done by the creature, itā€™s not remotely the same story

If you want the same story.

Read the same story, don't go see new films and expect replicated experience of a novel or past film.

That's not how new adaptations work.
