All is Fine in '89 (2024) Bradley Gibson All is Fine in ’89 doesn’t add anything new to our recollection of the time. For those not already intimately familiar with the 80s, the film offers an accurate, if grim, window on what it was like to be a young adult then.

Wuthering Heights (2026) Bradley Gibson People have always been drawn to this dark, desperate romance and the willingness of these characters to burn in that fire. Even if this doesn’t wind up being your favorite version of the film, it’s worth seeing Fennell’s updated take.
