The fifty shades of Wuthering Heights

Watching Emerald Fennell's film based on the immortal Wuthering Heights in a Tokyo theater was a very unique experience. 


It was a work with a constellation of great acting from Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi, and Owen Cooper, under Fennell's original interpretations of the classic.


The hallmarks of a creative spirit can be felt in the bits of oddities found in an otherwise canonical fictional worldview. 


Fennell's liberty at interpreting or rather creating on top of Wuthering Heights is perhaps the reason both for its box office success and critical turmoils. 


There are infinite possibilities, perhaps, in a work like Wuthering Heights, to be drawn into our own fountain of life at this time. The fifty shades of Wuthering Heights presented by Emerald Fennell finally had a tinge of rainbow.
