Wuthering Heights, an adaptation of the classic novel by Emily Brontë, has generated expectations and tensions, especially due to rumors that it might betray the original work. According to various analyses, many literature enthusiasts are concerned about the possible interpretation that Fennell and her team may offer. However, what is undeniable is the uniqueness of the production design, which has been transformed by Suzie Davies, responsible for creating an impactful and original atmosphere.

Davies has revealed that he used pieces of latex that mimic human skin to design Cathy’s room, a space that truly looks like it is covered by her own skin. To achieve this effect, he asked Margot Robbie to send him high-resolution photos of her arms and veins, which were printed and used on the panels of the room. This attention to detail not only highlights the visual narrative but has also generated a dialogue between aesthetics and the story that could be intriguing for the viewer.

Despite the fascination with the visual aspects, the film has raised questions about its fidelity to the original work. Debates on this topic continue, reflecting the cultural impact that Fennell has achieved through her innovative and provocative method.
