Read the book. Watch the film. Join the conversation. Join us at the NFSA in Acton for a unique monthly book club experience, in collaboration with ABC Radio Canberra.
Explore how culturally significant books have been adapted and reimagined as films. Our first film is the latest adaptation of Wuthering Heights.
Continue the conversation with a lively post-screening discussion. Compare the book and the film with book-loving ABC Radio Canberra hosts, Alice Matthews and Rhian Williams.
Spend your Sunday at the NFSA and meet your fellow book club members. Enjoy lunch, coffee or a sweet treat prior to the screening, available for purchase from Dom’s Deli and Bar.
ABOUT THE FILM:
Inspired by Brontë’s classic, return to the passionate relationship between Heathcliff (Jacob Elordi) and Catherine (Margot Robbie). Their love curdles into obsession amid the harsh Yorkshire moors.
Director Emerald Fennell brings a contemporary sensibility to a story of class, desire and emotional ruin, emphasising its raw psychological intensity and dark undertones. Fennell’s Wuthering Heights explores cinema’s fascination with love as a destructive force and reinterprets a literary landmark for a new generation.
Composer Anthony Willis’ film score features original songs by Charli XCX including ‘House’ with John Cale.
