In the previews for one of my favorite movies of 2025, "Hamnet," the trailer for the new adaptation of “Wuthering Heights” blazed by my delighted eyes.
It opens on Friday in theaters across the country, and readers, director Emerald Fennell’s take on this classic is transgressive, over the top and controversial. I can’t wait to see it in all of its torturous, romantic glory!
Next, I’m headed to Morocco in April and I recently reread “The Sheltering Sky” by Paul Bowles. But the movie, starring Debra Winger and John Malkovich, is so much more idyllic. Transcendent landscapes, gorgeous acting and delicious romantic tragedy.
And finally, if you’ve seen every Pride and Prejudice adaptation as I have, I’ll bet you have a favorite Mr. Darcy. Find me on Instagram @kerriroamsandreads
to discover the Darcy I can’t do without and share yours!
