Episode 187 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Out on the wily, windy moors, Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren are covering movies of any year, any genre and any quality.
This episode, it's time for a trip to the cinema to experience Emerald Fennell's controversial take on classic novel WUTHERING HEIGHTS! Your hosts are big fans of Emerald's previous work so would this one make it three hits out of three? And is it as steamy a time as the marketing would have you believe?
Hayley and Darren talk about literary fandom, the modern cinemagoing experience, how the lustful encounters stack up against 1980s and 1990s smut, and of course there's discussion of Jacob Elordi's West Riding accent. One half of the team is a professional Yorkshireman, so he can judge Jacob's vocal efforts with at least some insight. Elsewhere, Kate Bush references are kept to a minimum but Darren somehow manages to mention Jess Franco at one point.
There's no controversy when it comes to the music of Mitch Bain, whose fine tunes are featured on this very podcast. You can find Mitch on Instagram if you look for "evertheoptimitch".

How well hung was that guy in the first scene?
