Look at this quote from the casting director of the new “Wuthering Heights” movie. “Just a book,” indeed. 😠
(Tagged book is what I actually expect this film to be based on. 🤣)
dabbe Well, that makes me not want to see it at all! Thanks for the heads up! 💛💜🧡 22h
RowReads1 Yeah. No. I already don‘t like it. I‘m not an English Lit major. 22h
Andrea313 The more I read about this movie, the higher my level of disbelief. I'm not even sure I can stomach a hate-watch at this point! 21h

ferskner Don't hate me, but I'm actually okay with changes to books (I think it's a totally different artistic interpretation) but way to alienate the core audience, Guardian! 🙄 19h
rubyslippersreads @ferskner I‘m okay with it too; The Wizard of Oz movie and book are quite different (I actually love the film more). What I objected to here was what sounded like disrespect of books and authors. 19h
ferskner @rubyslippersreads totally! It's so dismissive, like the same people who say "there are still libraries?" 19h
Bette I just read an article with comments like ‘50 shades of Brontë.‘ I will probably see it but it makes me a little sad since I love Brontë‘s work as it is. 16h
