Was so impressed after watching Emily to find it was Frances O’Connor who wrote and directed this beautiful film. Incredibly gut wrenching and tragic. Such a great debut; love her as an actress
Great interview. Love Frances and Emma! The movie is great!
incredible movie
Love Frances Oconnor
I enjoyed this film, and being as we don't know a lot about Emily and her love life, this kind of story could be believable ... but ... did they not change the sequence of events near the end? Bramwel was still alive when they all, not just Emily, wrote their novels but they hid the fact from him. Emily I've heard caught pneumonia at or soon after Branwel's funeral and died only a few months later. I can't see how it helped the story to change it so that Emily wrote Wuthering Heights in the few months she had left after Branwel's death. I was with the story up to the ending when everything all went wrong, and I couldn't see what artistic purpose it served. Surely the art of a good fictitious story is to make it believable, and it can only do that if it fits in with the known facts.
the film takes a lot of liberties, and it mixes dreams and reality, it has an oneiric quality, and it affirms its nature and does not strive to submit to known facts. any biopic is interpretation of facts any way. look at shakespeare’s historical plays, or at dumas. they were pretty good, one might say, but they weaved the facts to suit their art. this film affirms its dreamlike quality time and time again throughout it, but especially, if i remember correctly, when we see emily looking at her own published book and her name appears on the cover, when in reality, it was first published under a pseudonym. it;s a commentary on the nature of history/stories/ biographies, but it also lets itself breathe and not be confined by wooden ruled in order to say sthg meaningful.
"Oneiric" is a good word. I'll have to find an occasion to utilize. 😊
"Oneric" is a good word. I will need to find an occasion to use it.
My local theater JUST started playing this. I didn’t know this was a 2022 movie. Anyway, I have mixed feelings about this film. I can understand why it’s getting so much praise though.
Why mixed feelings?

I saw the movie today and liked a lot although I think that the real Emily Brontë was probably the opposite of how Emma Mackey played her. From what I read about her she was extremely shy and an introvert and Emma Mackey plays her as a very strong and passionate woman, someone who experiments with drugs and have a passionate sexual relationship. I doubt that the real Emily Brontë was like that. I think all of her passions and emotional intensity was kept inside of herself, in her mind.
I disagree! Being shy and introverted does not stop people from also being passionate and strong. Obviously this is not a biopic by any means, but who knows? She experienced everything she wanted in the safety of her own home. And maybe that’s enough for some people.
@@leleprtk I'm not criticizing her, just saying that I think that to the real Emily Brontë looked to people shy and mousy. Maybe even slim and short. And Emma Mackey is a tall, physically strong woman who project something strong and dominant. I don't think that Emily Brontë was like that. There are people who look shy and mousy and have a very rich inner world and passions. I think that was what Emily Brontë was like.
@@abcxyz8787 I disagree, didn’t get that impression at all. And from every record we have of Emily Brontë she was a lot like Emma in the film.
@@abcxyz8787 Stature and shyness got nothing to do with passion, strength nor sexuality.
Emm does not look healthy :( I think she lost so much weight
Really? She looks fine to me here. She doesn't seem too thin or unhealthy
Ru her doctor
Based on appearence alone she looks good to me
