Emily (2022)
6/10
A fairly well made teenage fan fiction version of the life of Emily Brontë
16 March 2023
Emma Mackey is a great screen presence and gives a solid performance as do the rest of the cast. However, there are some problems. Firstly, some of the acting very film school, almost amateurish. Secondly, the Yorkshire accents are all over the place, fading in and out with each scene.

The sound editing is quite effective as is, the close up, intimate style of direction.

The biggest problem is the fan fiction plot that clearly believes that Emily Brontë lived Wuthering Heights instead of writing it.

All that being said, it is worth a watch, there are some scenes, the mask, that are very well done.
