Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of Wuthering Heights might be the most polarising film of the year, dividing audiences just like Saltburn did in 2023. Now, you can finally watch the doomed love story from the comfort of your couch – it’s finally available to stream in the UK.
Receiving a mixed critical reception, the adaptation stars Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, and it thoroughly divided The Independent’s culture desk. Senior lifestyle and culture writer Katie Rosseinsky calling it “flat and empty”, while culture editor Jessie Thompson praised its “artistic maximalism”, adding “that’s kind of why I loved it”. Shot on the Yorkshire moors, the ultra-stylised film features a Charli XCX soundtrack, glossy gothic costuming and blood-red hues.
