Highland News adds one more festival where Andrea Arnold's Wuthering Heights will be screened: Inverness Film Festival (9-13 November).

And Just Jared Jr. shares a picture of Kaya Scodelario and Nicola Burley at the London Film Festival screening last Saturday. The picture on the right hand side is courtesy of lazygirls.

The Case for Global Film, Celluloid Heroes Radio and Glam UK review the film.

Rope of Silicon begins looking at scripts with Oscar odds and shares a link where Moira Buffini's screenplay for Jane Eyre 2011 can be read/downloaded. Coincidentally, Grantland's Hollywood Prospectus broaches the subject as well:
But The Help (let alone hopefuls The Ides of March, Jane Eyre, Drive, and The Skin I Live In) may have trouble surviving an onslaught of high-profile year-end releases: Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, War Horse, The Descendants, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Hugo, A Dangerous Method, Carnage, We Bought A Zoo, and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close all qualify in this category and collectively, their authors have amassed 18 nominations for earlier scripts. This category feels crowded with potential best picture contenders, and as the writing branch narrows the field, the overall appeal of the movie, not just the writing, may make the difference.
