Los Angeles Review of Books wonders about Andrea Arnold's work as director of the new season of
Big Little Lies.
Arnold, the brilliant British director of psychosexual kitchen-sink dramas Red Road, Fish Tank, and American Honey, as well as the dampest adaptation of Wuthering Heights yet attempted, was brought in to replace Jean-Marc Vallée and direct all seven episodes of the second season. As a few writers have already noted, it’s strange that a director with such particular visual perspective has, so far, seemed to hew so closely to the style guide set up by Vallée in the first season. [...]
But Arnold is also a director who, almost exclusively until this point, has trained her camera on poverty. All of her films, even and especially Wuthering Heights, are about class tension, about life at economic extremes. (Phillip Maciak)
A columnist from
The Telegraph has gone 'wild camping' and written about it:
Conditions, having been all golden June, are as Wuthering Heights as south London can aspire to. Think: wind and lashing rain. (Hannah Betts)
Roboraptor (Hungary) discusses women in fiction and madness.
Az utóbbi fogalom a nők esetében főleg olyan nem illő viselkedést jelentett, mint a hangos beszéd, a modortalanság bármilyen formája, vagy a nem értlemezhető, esetleg nyílt szexuális viselkedés. Ezeket a mintákat főleg a 19. században íródott regényekben érhetjük tetten mint az akkori társadalmi gondolkodás leképeződését. Például Charlotte Brontë Jane Eyre-jében a zavarodott Mrs. Rochester, vagyis Bertha Mason karakteréből arra lehet következtetni, hogy állapotához bűne (Mr. Rochestert becsapták azért, hogy feleségül vegye Berthát) és szexuális viselkedése (erotikus pózok, fizikai kontakt kialakítása) vezetett. (Scheirich Zsófia) (Translation)
Ireland before you die recommends staying at Wilton Castle, which is not
far from Dublin and looks like something out of a Charlotte Brontë novel. (Paris Donnatella Callan)
