Wuthering Heights Review

     Emerald Fennell's "Wuthering Heights" was always going to divide audiences, with many coming to conclusions prior to watching the film. Fennell takes inspiration from Emily Brontë's novel to create a new version of Wuthering Heights rather than an adaptation. Whilst the story differs, the sole focus upon Cathy and Heathcliff in the present rather than a recalled version of events, Fennell manages to create a compelling narrative. The film has sparks of perfection. Although "Wuthering Heights" is a sweeping tragedy it falls short of its potential which would have put it on course for a best picture nomination.

Christmas Movie List

Hi!! Christmas is my favourite time of year, I love the awful jumpers, baking cookies, snuggling in the warm with hot chocolate, but most of all I love the movies. I would watch Christmas films all year around if I could (I may have watched Christmas films on occasions after nights out back when I was at university... but shhhh don't tell). With December less than a week away I decided to make a Christmas Movie Watchlist. The list is made up of 24 films for 24 days - it's sort of like a Christmas advent calendar but with films! Brilliant right? I haven't numbered the films that way you can watch them in whatever order you like. The list is made up of my favourites, some have been favourites since I was a child, some are films that have come out this year, but I love them all.

The watchlist is below, print it, share it, post it on social media (tag Just Another Film Blog in your posts) and make sure to watch along with me! I will be posting on Instagram throughout December so make sure you follow to keep up to date. 


Let me know what Christmas films you love, I cannot wait to see how many everyone manages to cross of during December.
