In fact, the title of the movie is technically “Wuthering Heights” – quotation marks and all – to denote that this is something different. The director ditches major characters and changes many plot points. Charli XCX songs dominate the soundtrack, and costumes look like they came from a deranged child’s dollhouse.

Usually, that is enough to make you wary. But Fennell’s take on Emily Bronte’s 1847 novel Wuthering Heights has the substance to back it up.

In the post-streaming age, it’s rare for actors to bring in quite the same mammoth salaries – at least compared to the glory days when audiences were drawn to a film primarily based on its leading star. Years ago, if a certain actor’s name was attached to a film, it almost guaranteed success.

Although her US$12.5 million payday for her role in Barbie is considered a decent figure by industry standards and was the same amount as her co-star Ryan Gosling, it still showed an undeniably stark contrast to Tom Cruise’s US$100 million bill for Top Gun: Maverick.

With the likes of Dion Lee, Camilla & Marc, Christopher Esber and Zimmermann offering unique and sophisticated designs for a global audience, the country has long outgrown its reputation for being the go-to only for bathing suits and beachwear.

Her reward is a spin-off movie, continuing her nefarious adventures in Gotham in this violent, scrappy, grungy effort. The film begins, cleverly, with an animated catch-up, as she reminds us of how she fell for the crown prince of crime, the Joker, landed in a vat of goo and went psycho. Only now Harley has split from the Joker (so no... https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3049158/birds-prey-film-review-margot-robbie-reprises-harley-quinn?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3049158/birds-prey-film-review-margot-robbie-reprises-harley-quinn?utm_source=rss_feed Wed, 05 Feb 2020 17:00:08 +0000 In the wake of her best actress Oscar nomination for Lady Bird at the beginning of last year, Saoirse (pronounced Ser-sha) Ronan has emerged as one of the hottest young stars in Hollywood.   Having won the hearts of audiences with her spirited portrayal of a rebellious California teenager, the 24-year-old Ronan has entered a new realm entirely – playing the title role in Mary Queen of Scots.

Set during the reign of Elizabeth I of England (1533-1603), and directed by British theatre director Josie Rourke, it brings a feminine viewpoint to history by emphasising “yin” qualities over “yang”. It reduces the vast array of male lords and suitors to supporting players, and highlights sisterhood and female solidarity over aggression and violence.

Stylishly designed, albeit set in a fantasy land of strip bars, seedy hotels, diners and deserted train stations, Terminal is a nasty little story of bloody revenge, enlivened only by a glossy cast led by Margot Robbie and Mike Myers. The film begins in the aforementioned station, as English professor Bill (Simon Pegg) is waiting... https://www.scmp.com/culture/film-tv/article/2159593/terminal-film-review-margot-robbie-plays-stripper/assassin-cliched?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/culture/film-tv/article/2159593/terminal-film-review-margot-robbie-plays-stripper/assassin-cliched?utm_source=rss_feed Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:03:59 +0000 4.5/5 stars Figure-skating ace Tonya Harding became a celebrity for all the wrong reasons in the early 1990s, when she was caught up in a plot by her manager and bodyguard which led to an assault on her rival, Nancy Kerrigan. This clever drama, which is based on “contradictory interviews” with all involved, takes an innovative approach to telling Harding’s story, and it proves more effective than the standard biopic format.

Just hours after it was announced that directors Todd Phillips and Martin Scorsese are developing a Joker origin story for the big screen, Warner Bros/DC Films announced that Jared Leto will return to play the Clown Prince of Crime in a separate new movie.

And now Suicide Squad’s Margot Robbie will brandish her giant bat in real life.
