Hey, it\u2019s me again – Reede Fox<\/span><\/a>, and I\u2019ll be reviewing an old classic. There\u2019s something deliciously inappropriate about turning Wuthering Heights into a film for the OnlyFans<\/span><\/a> era – except it isn\u2019t inappropriate at all. Emily Bront\u00eb<\/span> wrote a novel about obsession, possession and people behaving badly in storms. The Victorians called it gothic. We\u2019d probably call it content.<\/p>\n

This adaptation just drops the lace curtain and admits what was always there: desire as spectacle, longing as performance, and love as something far messier than polite culture likes to admit. I\u2019ll be honest – Wuthering Heights lived in my head for years as one of those books school somehow managed to make terminally dull. Grey classrooms, scratched desks, teachers insisting it was \u201ca timeless romance\u201d while tactically avoiding the obvious fact that everyone in it is completely unhinged.<\/p>\n

\"Wuthering<\/p>\n

We analysed weather symbolism for weeks instead of simply admitting that Heathcliff and Catherine are basically two emotionally unstable people ruining everyone else\u2019s lives because they fancy each other too much. Watching this version feels like finally saying the quiet part out loud. And thankfully, the film doesn\u2019t try to clean Heathcliff up into some misunderstood soft boy. He\u2019s obsessive, vindictive, manipulative, emotionally feral and still weirdly magnetic. Which, honestly, is probably the most realistic thing about him.<\/p>\n

The film understands something older adaptations sometimes avoided: people aren\u2019t drawn to Heathcliff because he\u2019s kind. They\u2019re drawn to him because he wants things too intensely and with absolutely no self-control whatsoever. History suggests that sort of energy has never exactly struggled to attract attention.What works here is that nobody\u2019s pretending this relationship is healthy.<\/p>\n

Heathcliff and Catherine don\u2019t feel like soulmates so much as two people feeding each other\u2019s worst impulses until the whole thing catches fire. There\u2019s no comforting romance arc, no neat lesson, no sense that love magically fixes anybody. You\u2019re not supposed to admire what they have. You\u2019re supposed to watch it the same way you watch a car crash in slow motion: fascinated, slightly horrified, but still looking. And visually, the film absolutely knows what it\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n

Older adaptations treated desire like a secret hidden somewhere inside the wallpaper. This one practically shoves your face into it. The camera lingers. Breathing gets louder. Hands hover too long. Everyone looks damp, exhausted, windswept, and one argument away from making catastrophic decisions.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s extremely physical without constantly tipping into explicitness. You feel mud, cold air, skin, tension. Nothing about it feels polished or overly romanticised. Desire here isn\u2019t elegant. It\u2019s awkward, impulsive, messy, and slightly destructive. Which is probably closer to reality anyway.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also impossible to watch this without thinking about the reaction to Saltburn<\/span><\/a>, where audiences suddenly acted shocked that films about desire might actually include\u2026 desire. People called it vulgar and excessive, but most of the outrage felt less about the film itself and more about discomfort with appetite being shown too openly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s what links these stories together. Strip away enough politeness and people start panicking. And yes, this film absolutely knows its cast are attractive. The camera studies faces, skin, mouths, expressions – properly studies them. But underneath all the beauty there\u2019s still something rougher going on. These people don\u2019t float elegantly through romance. They bruise each other with it.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also something satisfying about seeing a Yorkshire story fully lean into its Yorkshireness. Watching all this wind-battered intensity unfold, I kept thinking of our very own Yorkshire camgirl<\/span><\/a>, the delightfully decadent Hannah Claydon<\/span><\/a> – same county, very different context, but the same kind of unapologetic energy underneath it.<\/p>\n

\"Wuthering<\/p>\n

Because Bront\u00eb\u2019s women were never really written to be meek. They were written to want things. Loudly. Destructively sometimes. And Yorkshire has always seemed very good at producing women who don\u2019t particularly care whether they\u2019re considered \u201ctoo much.\u201d<\/p>\n

To be fair, the film definitely glamorises toxic behaviour at times, but that also feels intentional. We\u2019re supposed to notice how easy it is to mistake intensity for depth. Why chaos often feels more exciting than kindness. Why people confuse obsession with passion in the first place. The film never fully answers those questions, which honestly makes it more interesting.<\/p>\n

Some people will absolutely hate this version of Wuthering Heights. They\u2019ll call it excessive, provocative, unnecessary. I\u2019d argue it\u2019s probably the first adaptation in years that trusts the material enough to stop pretending it was ever polite in the first place.<\/p>\n
