More?? I feast!! Your other video was so excellent. Honestly, please, if I ever fail in life, let me do so in a way that generates as much spectacular analysis and discussion of an incredibly relevant topic (the Gothic, race in Victorian literature, etc)… especially since Dunk and Egg took a turn away from cozy time, this discourse has been basically my only joy in life 😂

I'm really really sorry about Lola

I'll be the first to say that I also don't really care for wuthering heights. I would say that of all the classics I read in high school it was the only one I would consider a genuine chore to read. So when all the hubba about this film came out I wasn't that engaged but having watched your previous video and now this one the discourse makes sense. I'm just completely flabbergasted on how so many women just simply refuse to think AT ALL when it comes to the media that they consume. The infatalization of grown women reducing any criticism of them down to misogyny is actually fucking infuriating. I'm not sure if this makes sense but it seems that they seem to think so little of themselves and their own intelligence to "girly pop" or whatever these complex conversations. It's genuinely maddening. Also may I possibly inquire as to where you got that girl dinner JJK poster 😅

I am loving every critique I have seen, of this film adaptation. It has genuinely been making me feel more positive about "Wuthering Heights" as a whole. I won't be seeing "Wuthering Heights" until it hits digital viewing, though. Side note, Fennel's voice is so beautiful... beautiful gowns. 😉 She is amazing as Camilia Parker Bowles in "The Crown." Keep giving us your best Princess!

I think I’m confused by the comparison because Twilight wasn’t a moral panic and neither is this. emerald Fennell is someone who advertises and makes provocative films discussing it accordingly is very morally neutral imo

Tanner Gore

Sorry, the Twilight example was poorly thought out, so I deleted it. I should have just said that I‘m surprised by the intensity of the negativity in the Anglosphere compared to Austria/Germany, where the film seems to be being well received, and I‘m curious about how the discourse will shift (or remain the same) in the coming years. Anyway great video and thank you!
