Good day, I’m Emerald Fennell, and I’m the screenwriter and director of “Wuthering Heights.” “Wait until you see your attire, Cathy.” So on this scene, we now have a tour of Thrushcross Grange, which is Cathy’s marital dwelling. It’s Edgar Linton and his ward, Isabella, performed by the unbelievable Shazad Latif and Alison Oliver. And they’re exhibiting round Cathy Linton, now, performed by the great Margot Robbie. The sequence is shot in a single take by our unbelievable digicam operator, Ossie McLean, who is without doubt one of the greatest Steadicam ops on the earth. And so the hallways in Thrushcross Grange are all in this type of arterial blood pink. “I stated it must be essentially the most stunning shade on the earth. The colour of my spouse’s candy face. Right here, look the freckle out of your cheek.” I feel the factor about Thrushcross Grange is it’s designed to be without delay sort of beguiling and grotesque. So it was all the time about speaking to Suzie Davies, the unbelievable manufacturing designer, about learn how to have of uncanny feeling that was unconscious relatively than overbearing. Ultimately, what it was made out of was padded panels with pictures of Margot’s precise pores and skin and veins and freckles printed onto material, after which with an overlay of this very skinny latex. And so what you discover within the Victorian period was there was an enormous preoccupation with containing nature. So right here we now have this lamb that’s taxidermied. “Nelly. Nelly. Nelly. Nelly!” “Sure, Cathy.” “Nicely, you’ve gotten been quiet.” “Quiet?” Nelly Dean is performed by the unbelievable Hong Chau. That is the library, which is a sort of collector’s cupboard. So you may see these arms in every single place holding pure artifacts which have been lacquered. And it’s all about, containing nature and what occurs whenever you do this, which actually is the type heart of the e book. It’s why Cathy’s necklace is gigantic and virtually choking, and why her gown is corseted extraordinarily tightly. “As for the remaining, that is good.”
