I wanted to make a movie that made could maybe make people
00:04
feel the way the book made me feel when I first read
00:07
it, which was just like,
00:08
like my chest had been cut open.
00:10
Why did you leave me?
00:13
Why did you betray your own heart?
00:16
Jacob, Margot, congratulations on the film.
00:20
Thank you. How are you feeling?
00:21
Good. Have you seen it?
00:22
I saw it last night and you think all the emotions applied
00:28
I was famila me too.
00:30
Juanajoar. It was a spectacular loamos en espanol.
00:34
Modern day dating culture often rejects chaos and love.
00:37
We have our algorithms talking about red flags,
00:40
Is when we. Watch characters like Catherine and Heathcliff.
00:44
Are we meant to see a warning or understand why chaos still
00:48
feels so seductive? Maybe a more well balanced person would say
00:52
it's a cautionary tale,
00:53
but to me I'm just like,
00:54
I want that. For me,
00:55
I feel like it's actually kind of all the characters are an
00:58
accurate representation of the ways that we love and sort of love
01:03
isn't cut and dry or straightforward,
01:04
you know, as everyone knows from their experience,
01:06
so. I think kind of like warning against those things and
01:11
making them taboo actually sort of negates that they're a real thing
01:16
you know, in people and in love.
01:18
In Spanish you would say unamorrai unamor ai paionado.
01:22
I love it. I can follow you like a dog to
01:24
the end of the world.
01:25
There's 2026 Petty like blocking an ex on Instagram,
01:29
and then there's Wuthering Heights Petty.
01:31
What do you think makes emotional revenge feel so timeless?
01:35
It's Primal and it's,
01:36
it's reactionary, you know,
01:37
and love is that at its core without without sort of
01:41
social constructs put around it,
01:42
I think. It is kind of like an urge I think
01:45
people have an urge that most people,
01:48
you know, fight against and don't act upon.
01:51
Our characters act upon all these urges in this movie,
01:53
maybe it's because it is that kind of like it's in,
01:55
it's in there, like the impulse is in there,
01:58
it's kind of like a part of the human condition to behave
02:02
in that way. Charlie XCX producing the soundtrack.
02:08
Before there was Wuthering Heights Winter,
02:10
there was a rat Summer.
02:12
How did that process come to be?
02:13
I'm just obsessed with her and I've been obsessed with her for
02:16
a decade. I sent her the script,
02:19
before we started shooting.
02:20
I didn't ask for anything,
02:21
I just said if this makes you feel something,
02:23
if you connect to this,
02:24
just call me. And so she called me and she said
02:27
She was like, well what about an album?
02:29
well, obviously that would be the most incredible thing in the
02:32
world. It's the best album I've ever heard.
02:38
Their characters have such a complex dynamic.
02:42
I mean, fostering this relationship on set,
02:44
what were you able to do to build that chemistry and trust
02:47
with one another? Heaps of high fives.
02:51
It's not like we had to like I,
02:53
I didn't think to myself like oh we better like hang out
02:55
on the weekend so that we bond so that we can do
02:59
Like it was, I think we're both very dedicated at what
03:02
we do and and care a lot about the work and then
03:04
we approach our work in a similar way,
03:06
and we want to bring it and we know that we want
03:08
to like elicit a feeling in the audience and so we're both
03:11
trying to do the same thing at the same time so it
03:13
ends up happening. And then anytime we,
03:16
You know, hang or do bonding things,
03:18
it was because it was just fun and you know,
03:20
when you make a movie,
03:22
everyone hangs out on the weekends and you,
03:24
you know, you become friends with the people that you work
03:26
with, so that's just kind of like an added bonus as
03:28
opposed to a prerequisite to finding the,
03:31
the acting path. That's beautiful.
03:33
Well, thank you so much for your time,
03:34
familia me too. You don't want to miss it in theater
03:37
Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day.
03:39
It's officially a Wuthering Heights winter.
03:41
I'm just letting everyone know.
03:52
Do you want me to stop?
