Shownotes
This week on Fred On Film, my Darling Wife is in the studio as producer! And she only has one thing to say…
ANYWAY, first we dive straight into the mud (and other fluids) of Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights. Is it just trash fan fiction, or something more? I discuss the discourse, the dirty deeds, and my delight with the movie.
Plus, with the news that Brad Pitt’s F1: The Movie is getting a sequel, I read out your hilarious suggestions for title ideas (2 F 2 Furious anyone?). Probably my favourite time of 2026 so far hahaha
I then struggle through the Testament of Ann Lee (Amanda Seyfried’s…musical??) and alongside it launch a new segment: Forrest Grump (cinema rants).
We finish another excerpt from my Teenage Movie Journals, another certain Amanda Seyfried musical from 2008…cmon, Take A Chance On Me and stay till the end to find out which one, and what 15yo me had to say about it.

WUTHERING HEIGHTS Review! (Mild Spoilers)
My relationship to the book and the interpretation in general
The Naughty Bits
Performances are strong within the world of THIS version
Striking (but inconsistent?) visual style
Charlie XCX’s soundtrack has way less presence than I expected
Poissibly a 2nd Act pacing issue
It is trash, but I think it landed the plane on being slightly more than that
