A pretty darn good legacy

Varsity mentions the Brontës several times in a review of the film Hoard.

Upon its release in 1848, critics condemned Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights as depraved, vulgar and brutal. These words and their synonyms echo in the reviews of Luna Carmoon’s debut feature, Hoard. [...]

Hoard asserts itself as a truly paramount coming-of-age film, drawing on an almost archaic gothic format that has more in common with the likes of Jane Eyre than it does with other justly esteemed films about female maturity. The gothic elements are all there: Quinn’s Michael as a less formidable but equally provoking Heathcliffe, and Spiro’s Michelle as a grounding force equal to Mrs. Fairfax. Hoard illustrates a maturation which necessitates walking through the darkest parts of humanity in order to understand ourselves and others, and to choose optimism and care in spite of the prevalence of real horror. This classic structure, which corsets Hoard, draws together its modern aesthetic and highly-developed characterisation with a story reminiscent of any Brontë sister or Edgar Allen Poe.

A contributor to Beaver County Times discusses the name Charlotte.

But on the other hand…Charlotte? It’s a name that’s been around for centuries. I was named after an aunt, who family lore has it was named after Charlotte Brontë. (Which is a pretty darn good legacy in my mind.) (Charlotte Latvala)
