Wuthering Heights in miniature (and maybe in development?)

Kate Bush is arguably one of the unexpected stars of 2022. Vogue (France) talks about her:

We didn't need to wait for Stranger Things to recognize the talent of the British artist and her bewitching voice. How could we forget her 1978 hit Wuthering Heights? The sublime piano ballad in referencing Emily Brontë propelled her to the top of the British charts for four weeks at just 19 years old, making her the first female singer-songwriter to top the charts in her country.  (Manon Garrigues)

The song is one of Elite Daily's favourite songs: 

"Running Up That Hill" is great and all, but it doesn't compare to "Wuthering Heights" for drama. Theater kids and lit majors eat your hearts out. I cannot wait for the 'Wuthering Heights" dance to hit TikTok. (Lilli Petersen, Senior Culture Editor)

The Hollywood Reporter lists the best British films of the year:

Marking her writing and directing debut, Emily — starring Emma Mackey in a largly fictionalized retelling of the life of famed Wuthering Heights author Emily Brontë — bowed in Toronto to solid reviews, with critics praising O’Connor’s imaginative, sensuous script and luscious filmmaking in the hills of Yorkshire. Emily later amassed four nominations at the British Independent Film Awards, while Bleeker Street is set to release the film in the U.S. in 2023. (Alex Ritman)

A film that L'Echo (Belgium) is eager to watch:

À qui le tour? En 2023, un autre grand destin nous attend. Un peu d'Emily Brontë, ça vous dit? Pas une nouvelle adaptation du plus grand roman de tous les temps, "Les Hauts de Hurlevent". Non, l'histoire de la jeune fille derrière le chef-d'œuvre. Il semblerait que le film prenne le temps de s'arrêter un moment à Bruxelles, pour nous montrer l'école privée de Constantin Héger, où Charlotte et Emily vinrent apprendre les langues en 1842 (avant d'y devenir enseignantes après seulement 6 mois!). On devrait aussi passer du temps autour du fameux presbytère du Yorkshire où la jeune femme vécut sa vie poétique, imaginative, frondeuse, et bien sûr trop brève – en compagnie de son frère et ses sœurs, de ses nombreux pays imaginaires (Gondal, Angria), sans oublier ses chers chiens, ou Néron, le faucon blessé qu'elle recueillit sur la lande.

Dans le rôle d'Emily, la Franco-britannique Emma Mackey, déjà vue dans "Eiffel", et star de la série culte "Sex Education".  (Sylvestre Sbille) (Translation)

Crumbe (France) also highlights Frances O'Connor as one of the year's best debuts in film direction. 

The Mary Sue recommends recent murder mysteries films:

Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party (2016). (...)  This 11-part murder mystery party series (that, even combined, is shorter than most movies) features Edgar Allan Poe hosting an exclusive dinner party with some of the most famous authors from across the (mostly white) world. The guest list includes names like Dickinson, Dostoevsky, Alcott, Wells, Shelley, Brontë, Krishanti, and many others to impress Poe’s crush. What night of camaraderie with famous authors wouldn’t get derailed by murder? (Alyssa Shotwell)

The Guardian is re-reading Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome which is defined like this:

The story is told like Wuthering Heights in miniature, minus its ghosts and children. (Rosalind Jana)

The Telegraph recommends underrated British corners for weekend breaks:

Calder Valley 

(...)  It is worth visiting just for a wander among the moorlands, but then there’s the brooding, eternally misty Todmorden, which is home to an indoor market serving impressively good coffee. Hike towards Pendle for moody cloudscapes one minute, glowing, sunlit hillsides the next. Literary types can turn the other way for a stomp across Brontë country, or head towards Sylvia Plath’s burial place in Heptonstall. (Sophie Dickinson)

La Razón (Spain) interviews the showrunner Rolin Jones who unveils a project for AMC... a new adaptation of Wuthering Heights?

Matías G. Rebolledo: ¿Tenía usted una relación directa con el trabajo de Anne Rice? Ha dicho alguna que otra vez que ella debería ser parte del canon literario.

R.J.: (...) Intentando levantar la serie he ido y he vuelto a ellos, además, desarrollando una adaptación de “Cumbres borrascosas”, también para AMC. Y, de repente, tienes en casa dos libros. Uno que está considerado alta literatura y otro que es pulp fiction. Y, joder, no puedes decirme que no son libros, al menos, a la misma altura. Yo creo, incluso, que los de Rice son mejores. Si abrimos el canon literario, tenemos que abrirlo también en el sentido del género. (Translation)

Dagsavisen (Norway) also looks to 2022 for the best theatre productions (blunder included):

 «Jane Eyre»

Nationaltheatret

En energibombe av en forestilling, der hovedrolleinnehaver Kjersti Tveterås har publikum i sin hule hånd fra begynnelse til slutt. I Eline Arbos regi har Emily Brontës (!!!) klassiske feministiske roman blitt en heidundrende teatral teaterforestilling. Selve fortellingen forenkles noe, men metaperspektiver og festlige feministiske refleksjoner legges lag på lag slik at vi virvles inn i en labyrint av tanker og følelser. Det hele er akkompagnert av lyn, torden og 80-tallshits. Alva Brostens kostymer i tyll og knæsje farger er med på å gjøre denne forestillingen til en ren fest. Og Kjersti Tveterås fikk, ikke overraskende, en velfortjent Heddapris for sin tolkning av Jane Eyre. (Mode Steinkjer and Inger Marie Kjølstadmyr) (Translation)

TVCubana (Cuba) interviews the actress Natasha Díaz:

Para suerte de quienes hemos aplaudido cada uno de sus magistrales desempeños artísticos, sucedió que “un día estaba escuchando por Radio Progreso el capítulo final de Cumbres borrascosas. Cuando terminé de oír aquello dije: yo quiero ser actriz”. (Magaly Cabrera) (Translation)
