Actor Frances O’Connor (Mansfield Park) makes her debut as a writer-director with a biopic about Wuthering Heights author Emily Brontë, played by Sex Education star Emma Mackey. Little is known about Brontë’s life, but O’Connor imagines an artist yearning for freedom, haunted by the death of her mother and two older sisters, and restricted by her family life and the combination of love and rivalry that makes up her relationships with siblings Charlotte (the author of Jane Eyre), Anne (the author of Agnes Grey), and her brother Branwell. When William Weightman (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), a young curate hired to assist her minister father and tutor her in French, arrives, passion and romance unexpectedly enter Emily’s life.
