“Wuthering Heights”, The Voice of Hind Rajab and Crime 101 (Movie Squad Podcast #524)

This week on the Movie Squad pod, it’s tonal whiplash from the Blockbuster Babes as they give you a bodice-ripping romance scored by Charli XCX, a heartbreaking piece of docufiction set in Gaza, and a Michael Mann-pastiche starring Chris Hemsworth. First up, Tristan Fidler and Brekky host Pamela Boland review Emerald Fennell’s sultry adaptation of Wuthering Heights (sorry: “Wuthering Heights”) starring Margot Robbie as Cathy and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliffe (y’know, from the song). Then, Simon Miraudo and Tristan review the Perth Festival flick The Voice of Hind Rajab, which uses the harrowing real-life audio of a child calling Palestinian emergency services for help, with actors playing the spiralling staff seeking to rescue her from a warzone. Stay tuned for a pod-exclusive review of Crime 101, an ensemble thriller about cops, robbers and Barry Keoghan playing yet another weird little guy. Learn about the new season of Tristan’s Trash Classics screenings at Luna Cinemas held on the last Friday of every month. Movie Squad is sponsored by Luna Palace Cinemas, WA’s premiere independent cinemas, bringing the best film content and cinematic events to Perth.
