On Episode 333 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello is joined by Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade and AW contributors Josh Parham and Dan Bayer out on the wily, windy moors to discuss Emerald Fennell's third feature, "Wuthering Heights," starring Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi, Alison Oliver, Shazad Latif, and Hong Chau.
The adaptation of Emily Brontë's groundbreaking 1847 Gothic novel has already caused quite the stir, but is this an adaptation that they cannot live without or one that drives them mad? The team discusses Fennell's vision, their favorite performances, the changes made from book to screen, the movie's eroticism, and more. Then, the gang previews the 79th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) taking place next Saturday, February 22. Will it be one award after another for our nomination leader, One Battle After Another? How will the Brits respond to Chloé Zhao's spin on Shakespeare? We break it all down.
