Can Wuthering Heights Change Your Life?

Описание: Why is a nearly 200 year old novel causing chaos on TikTok and in Hollywood? From casting controversies to steamy trailer debates to the wild legacy of Heathcliff and Cathy – here’s how Wuthering Heights is still blowing up pop culture. With a brand new Hollywood adaptation of Wuthering Heights – starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, and directed by Emerald Fennell – the classic is back at the center of a major online storm.
In this video, we break down why Wuthering Heights still hits so hard for modern audiences. Is it toxic romance? A story about class and desire? Or a warning about obsession that the movie still struggles to interpret? We also explore Emily Brontë’s mysterious life and why Kate Bush’s legendary song turned the novel into a cultural meme long before TikTok.
And the big question: Can Wuthering Heights actually change your life?
If you like deep dives into culture, literature, and film, this one's for you.
