"THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" (1996) Review
"THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" (1996) Review
I cannot count the number of times I have seen either movie or television adaptations of either Charlotte Brontë's 1847 novel, "Jane Eyre" or Emily Brontë's novel of the same year, "Wuthering Heights". There was also a third sister who was also a novelist, namely Anne Brontë. She had also written a famous novel. Published in 1848, it was titled "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall".
Despite the novel's success upon its publication, the reputation of "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall" seemed to have faded over the years . . . to the point that many literary critics had developed a dismissive attitude toward it by the early 20th century. However, the novel's reputation has grown considerably during the last decades of the 20th century. Although there have been references to Brontë's novel during this later period, there have been only two on-screen adaptations of the novel by the BBC - a four-part miniseries in 1968 and a three-part miniseries in 1996. I have yet to see the 1968 production, but I have seen the more recent miniseries at least three times. After my latest viewing, I decided to write a review.
"THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" begins with the arrival of a mysterious woman in black named Mrs. Helen Graham and her young son Arthur at Wildfell Hall, an Elizabethan manor located in Yorkshire. Helen is determined to establish an independent existence as an artist in order to support herself and Arthur. Due to her aloof and blunt manner, her new neighbors become determined to pry into her private life and learn everything about her. Only one neighbor, an attractive local farmer named Gilbert Markham manages to befriend her. But when Helen becomes aware of the growing attraction between her and Gilbert, she decides to reveal the truth about her past. Gilbert learns from reading her diary that she had fled from her husband, who is an alcoholic landowner. He also happens to be an abusive spouse, a womanizer, and a destructive influence on their young son.
As far as I know, there have been three previous Brontë productions in which its narratives were conveyed in a non-linear fashion - "WUTHERING HEIGHTS" (1939), "JANE EYRE" (2006) and "JANE EYRE" (2011). However, both Emily and Charlotte Brontë wrote their respective novels with linear narratives. Anne Brontë did not . . . at least for her 1848 novel. The story began from Gilbert Markham's point-of-view in a series of letters to a friend and his diary. The novel's middle narrative shifted from Gilbert to Helen's POV, as Gilbert learns the truth about her background and troubled marriage through the diary she gave him to read. The only difference between Brontë's novel and the 1996 miniseries is that screenwriter David Nokes began the story from Helen's point-of-view with her arrival at Wildfell Hall. Throughout the first episode, the narrative's POV shifted between Helen and Gilbert, with the occasional foray to another supporting character - especially Gilbert's mother or sister. Once the narrative shifted toward Helen's past history with Arthur Huntingdon in the second episode, she became the narrative's sole narrator until the third episode. Many movie and television productions have proven incapable of shifting time periods, let alone narrators with such ease.
Yet, there is another aspect of "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" that I found even more remarkable than its narrative structure - namely the story itself. Do not mistake me . . . I have enjoyed the numerous adaptations of "Wuthering Heights" and "Jane Eyre". But thanks to Anne Brontë's novel and David Nokes' screenplay, I prefer "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" over the other Brontë adaptations I have seen. I thought Nokes did an excellent job in capturing Brontë's tale about a young woman who had endured a toxic marriage and found herself struggling to put her memories behind her and eventually, facing them. Unlike her sisters Emily and Charlotte, Anne did not appease her readers with some Byronic hero whom the heroine either saves or reunite with in the afterlife. If I may say so, neither Gilbert Markham or Arthur Huntingdon struck me as Byronic. Gilbert struck me as an earthy, hot-tempered and slightly spoiled young man. His acquaintance and eventual romance with Helen forced him to mature. Arthur originally struck me as a dashing rogue, whose wit and managed to win Helen's hand in marriage. Yet, that wit and charm hid unfaithful and at times, vicious drunk who failed to overcome his addiction and insecure nature. We finally have Helen Graham/Huntingdon, whose character arc underwent quite a journey. The story began with a portrayal of Helen as this slightly hard, reserved and blunt woman who seemed leery of forming relations with her new neighbors - including Gilbert. Through the flashbacks from the second and third episodes, audiences learn how Helen had developed from a naive and slightly sanctimonious eighteen-year-old debutante to that blunt and paranoid mother of a five-year-old son.
What I truly liked about Anne Brontë's tale is that she did not pull any punches in her portrayal of Helen's experiences as Mrs. Arthur Huntingdon. Nor did she make any attempt to whitewash Helen's fear, sense of betrayal at Arthur's infidelity or her disappointment over her failure to transform him into a better man. What impressed me even further is that screenwriter David Nokes and director Mike Barker did more than justice to Brontë's novel. Both did an excellent job of recapturing trauma Helen must have experienced as a woman trapped in an abusive marriage. I also have to compliment both director and screenwriter for their treatment of Helen's experiences with her new neighbors near Wildfell Hall, as she dealt with their resentment toward her aloof manner and their vicious gossip. And I must admit that I really enjoyed how Helen's relationship with the earthy Gilbert Markham and the lively manner in which they developed from polite neighbors to close friends and potential lovers. More importantly, neither Helen nor Gilbert was portrayed as perfect.
I must confess that my only issue with the narrative was the ending. Brontë's novel ended with Gilbert erroneously suspecting that Helen had married Frederick Lawrence, her "landlord", following Arthur's death. Mind you, I did not care for that ending, which I found it a shallow and overused trope in many romance stories. David Nokes solved that problem by revealing Mr. Lawrence's true identity by the end of Episode 1. Unfortunately, he also repeated this same trope by having Helen suspect that Gilbert was about to marry his former love interest following her return to Wildfell Hall. Sigh. It was the same minor, yet shallow crap, but with a different character. Oh well . . . nothing is perfect.
I have no problems with the production values for "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL", save for one issue. I thought production designer Sarah Greenwood did an excellent job in re-creating the two Yorkshire communities during the 1820s in this miniseries. Daf Hobson's cinematography, Sarah Jane Cornish's art direction and the series' art department certainly added to the authenticity of Greenwood's work. I was especially impressed by Jean Speak's hair and makeup work and Rosalind Ebbutt's costume designs, as shown in the images below:
Needless to say, Greenwood, Hobson, Speak and Ebbutt all earned BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) nominations. Only Speak won. That one issue I had with the three-part miniseries centered around its film. I had no problems with Hobson's photography. But I had a problem with the film stock used for this production. I hate to say this, but I believe the color for the 1996 miniseries is in danger of fading in the coming years, unless the BBC can do something to save it. I wonder what kind of film Hobson or perhaps the BBC used for this production. I have noticed similar problems for other BBC productions during the 1990s.
Regardless of Nokes' excellent adaptation and Barker's direction, I feel this production would not have worked without the excellent performances that dominated it. "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" featured some strong performances from the likes of Kenneth Cranham, Aran Bell, Karen Westwood, and Miranda Pleasance who portrayed Helen's new tight-minded and conservative neighbors. Pam Ferris, Paloma Baeza and Joe Absolom gave first-rate performances as Gilbert's mother and two siblings. James Purefoy seemed to be very solid as Helen's "landlord", Frederick Lawrence. Livelier performances came from those who portrayed Arthur's predatory friends - Sean Gallagher, Jonathan Cake, Cathy Murphy and especially Beatie Edney, whose Annabella Lowborough struck me as deliciously corrupt. Dominic Rowan did an excellent job in portraying the more complicated Lord Lowborough, who proved to be repelled by his friends and wife's behavior. I thought Sarah Bidel gave the most poignant performance as Helen's loyal friend and caregiver, Rachel. Young Master Arthur Huntingdon proved to be the second role in Jackson Leach's short career. Eight to nine years old at the time, I thought he gave an excellent performance as the young Arthur, torn between his parents' influence.
"THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" not only benefited from a strong supporting cast, but also from superb performances by the three leads. Rupert Graves gave one of his best performances as Helen's alcoholic and abusive husband, Arthur Huntington. What I admired about Graves' performance was that he did not portray Arthur as some one-note villain. His Arthur was charming, witty, romantic, cold, dismissive, manipulative and yes . . . scary. In the end, Graves also managed to convey how pathetic Arthur was at his core. One would think Toby Stephens had it easier as Helen's true love interest, Gilbert Markham. Fortunately, Brontë's portrayal of Gilbert proved to be more complex. The production's casting director had been smart enough to hire a superb actor like Stephens who brought out the best and worst of Gilbert's character without making audiences question Helen's attraction to him. Tara Fitzgerald deserved top honors for her portrayal of the story's protagonist, Helen Graham (aka Huntington). I thought she did a superb job of conveying Helen's emotional journey from a naive debutante who fell in love with the wrong man, to a wiser, yet strong-willed young mother, whose past history with an abusive mother had led her to become somewhat paranoid and brusque with her neighbors. Yet, Fitzgerald also managed to retain Helen's capability for love through the character's relationship with her son and her burgeoning romance with Gilbert. It is a pity that none of the leads - Fitzgerald, Stephens or Graves had received any accolades or nominations for their performances.
What else can I say about "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL"? Nothing really. Yes, I found the romantic misunderstanding from the ending a little old and cliched. And yes, I believe the film that the miniseries was shot with in danger of fading. But if I must be brutally honest, I believe this adaptation of Anne Brontë's novel to be one of the best costume productions from the 1990s, let alone the past three or four decades, thanks to David Nokes' screenplay, Mike Barker's direction and a superb cast led by Tara Fitzgerald. Hell, I will go even further and state that this version of "THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL" might be my favorite adaptation of any Brontë novel.

List 3 of your favorite sims from other simmers you enjoy and explain why (Send this to 10 other blogs 💖💖)
I saw this ask while I was working and thought long and hard about who my favorite sims were from other simmers.
Firstly, I'd like to mention @emperorofthedark's Pleasant family. I thoroughly enjoy the way they are writing the dynamic between these characters, and I specifically love Angela Pleasant's character design. When I see shots of her, I see a broken, confused woman weighed down by the death of family members and plagued by troubling dreams. There is such intention in their work. One of this author's biggest talents is being able to express emotion through story, visuals, and sound. I want to learn more about Angela and see what surprises the exceptional @emperorofthedark has in store for us.
Secondly, I'd like to mention @papermint-airplane's character Aiden Ayy. I love aliens, and I've thought about the way they've written this character while daydreaming numerous times. I'm a big sucker for klutzy, cute boys, and Aiden's himbo vibe immediately captured my interest. I think what I enjoy most about Aiden is @papermint-airplane's sheer love for this character. From what I know, this has been a long-standing character they've developed over the course of a many years and their love for Aiden shows through their writing in his Bachelor challenge. I can't wait to see more of that bug-eyed baby, and also see if a Bachelorette will manage to court him successfully. Maybe he'll be captured for a reality TV dating show thrice?
*I'm going to throw my headcanon for Aiden here. I honestly can't help but imagine him with Viridia because I love the whole confident starlet meets neurotic himbo vibe. I knew the second Viridia stepped on screen and said it was my lucky day that she was my favorite contestant.
Last, but certainly not least, I'd like to mention @spaceapples98's Cathie and Parker Gallagher. I must say, I've always been soft for older individuals because I was raised by my grandparents, and these two are no exception to that. I love seeing their elderly shenanigans on the beach. I hope I miss the post on my dashboard when they finally pass away because I'll feel emotional. They remind me of salty, summer days with my grandparents on the beach. The Gallagher family feels very warm. I also really love @spaceapples98's screenshots and way of positioning their images in posts. They are all exceptionally pretty and dreamy!
It was a pleasure to gush about some of my favorite simmers and sims, and I look forward to seeing more of what you all post.

^___^’ hi, I’ve just found your tumblr — could you give a run down on your family ♡
Hi there! I’m so excited you asked!! 😊
I’m doing a random-style legacy and I’m on my second generation. I’m playing with most packs but not all (and I’ll probably rotate through some more as I go). It’s not a completionist challenge, but I am definitely inspired by the hixcompletionist challenge and those goals (so thank you @horusmenhosetix btw!)
Starting in Sunset Valley, my founder was Cathie Gallagher. I have been inspired by the 40s-50s midcentury aesthetic, so Cathie is meant to look like a cute 50s housewife! I'm planning on continuing a bit of this aesthetic until I get bored with it. Cathie married Parker Langerak and they had Frankie and Anya, and she ended up mastering the cooking career. Frankie and Anya then went to university and got degrees in Science and Physical Education, respectively. Frankie dated Gemma in college, and they got engaged right after graduation. Then Frankie, Gemma, Cathie, and Parker all moved to Sunlit Tides. The in-laws are enjoying their retirement, and Frankie and Gemma got married. Now, they are rising in the ranks as a scientist and as a science teacher.
I hope this is what you had in mind, sorry if I went overboard! 😅 I am also working on a family tree, so expect a post about that soon!

US to ban TikTok: Lawmakers introduce a Bill
This article on 'US lawmakers introduce a bill to ban TikTok: All you need to know' was written by Monika Yadav, an intern at Legal Upanishad.
Introduction
This article deals with the bill introduced by US legislation for the effective ban on the usage of social media platforms that create threats to the security of the nation as well as of individual data as the app operated by China (TikTok) has allegedly used the data and location of individual results in manipulation of the content the personal view on that particular app. Recently, on Tuesday a bill has been introduced in US Congress to prohibit such activities. In this article, we discuss the same in detail.
About the bill
Sen. Marco Rubio, a Republican from Florida, on Tuesday, unveiled a bipartisan bill to outlaw the widely known TikTok online networking platform in China, growing demands on the app's founder ByteDance Ltd. following American concerns that the programme could be utilized for spying on or criticizing citizens.
According to a press statement by Rubio's office, the measure would stop any transactions out of any social media platforms based in or influence by China and Russia.
Republican Congressman Mike Gallagher and Democratic Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi are the sponsors of a guide bill within the U.S. House of Representatives.
In response to a call for remark, ByteDance was silent right away.
Gallagher compared the app to "digital fentanyl," saying that allowing it to continue operating in the United States would be similar to enabling the Soviet Union to acquire the New York Times, Washington Post, and significant telecast network services throughout the Cold War. The app is approximated to have one billion average monthly subscribers.
In 2020, the previous president Donald Trump made an effort to prevent new U.S. consumers from installing WeChat & TikTok, which might have proficiently stopped the usage of these applications in the country, but he lost several legal challenges.
Due to concerns that U.S. customer data would be transferred to China's communist government, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), a significant national security agency of the U.S. authorities, directed ByteDance to withdraw from TikTok in 2020.
President Joe Biden authorized the Commerce Department to study the security issues raised by the applications after President Donald Trump dropped his executive orders which aimed to outlaw the downloading in June 2021.
US to ban TikTok: Lawmakers introduce a Bill
False statements with political overtones: US to Ban TikTok
The business might just have misinformed Congress regarding the amount of customer data it shared with China, according to issues expressed by House Republican representatives the previous month.
Republican leaders upon that House's energy & commerce and inspection committees, Cathy McMorris Rodgers and James Comer, respectively, addressed TikTok to express their concerns about what they saw to be misleading material in the staff briefings.
The Republican congressmen wrote to TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew claiming that "some of the material TikTok gave throughout the staff briefing seems to be inaccurate or deceptive," besides that "TikTok somehow doesn't monitor U.S. customer locations."
Republican lawmakers will take over the House next January, or the letter might be a precursor to the intense investigation that intends to give Chinese corporations.
Because of worries about national security, several states, the majority of which are governed by Republicans, have recently banned the usage of TikTok on computers and mobile devices used by state governments, particularly Alabama and Utah from Monday.
"Unsettlingly, TikTok collects enormous amounts of data, the majority of which carries no real relation to the app's purported function of video content. This intolerable susceptibility to Chinese espionage efforts is brought by the use of TikTok in conjunction with governmental IT infrastructure "Governor Kay Ivey of Alabama stated in a release.
TikTok is prohibited on state-owned gadgets in Texas, Maryland, & South Dakota, among many other U.S. states.
Indiana has indeed filed a lawsuit against the app, claiming that it misleads users regarding China's accessibility to their information and exposes kids to inappropriate material.
A spokesman for TikTok expressed disappointment in the fact that "so many states are rushing on the trend to enact legislation based on unsubstantiated, politically tinged misinformation regarding TikTok" in a statement released on Monday.
The Director of the FBI is concerned about potential influence activities
Republican Brendan Carr, the federal communications commissioner, posted on Twitter claiming at least nine states had taken measures against TikTok "focused on the substantial security dangers it offers."
In congressional testimony the previous month, FBI Director Chris Wray warned of the danger that the Chinese authorities may use the video-sharing software to manipulate users or take access to their gadgets.
The Chinese government "may be able to exploit to manage data gathering on millions of individuals or manipulate the recommendation system, which could be utilized for impact activities," according to Wray, who listed the threats.
He added that Beijing might be able to "manage programs on millions of gadgets” by using the app, allowing it the chance to "technically compromise” such gadgets.
According to Vanessa Pappas, a TikTok executive, TikTok was "heading in the right direction towards that final deal with the U.S. authorities that will further secure U.S. user data and properly satisfy U.S. national security needs," she told Congress in September.
Conclusion
According to a June BuzzFeed News story, workers of ByteDance, the parent firm of TikTok, who are based in China, had access to private information about American users. TikTok admitted that Chinese staff members have some access to U.S. data but denied ever giving any to Chinese authorities. A number of states have already taken action to forbid TikTok use on equipment used by the government and the introduction of this bill is a big step by the United States Government to place a permanent ban on the use of TikTok.

Who is James Krauseneck ( Husband Found Guilty 40 Years After Murdering His Wife With an Axe ) Wiki, Bio, Age, Crime, Arrest, Incident Details, Investigations and More Facts
James Krauseneck Biography James Krauseneck Wiki
On a cold February afternoon in 1982, James Krauseneck called the police and said he had just come home from work to find his wife who had been dead for 29 years in their bedroom - with an ax in her head.
Their 3-year-old daughter, Sara, was still in her bedroom at their New York home.
Victim
The grisly discovery surprised Brighton authorities as they rushed to identify a suspect behind the murder of Cathleen "Cathy" Krauseneck. For decades, the cold case dubbed "Brighton Ax Murder" remained unsolved even after investigators sought help from the FBI and a prominent coroner.
But in 2019, authorities arrested Krauseneck on suspicion of killing his wife, staged the scene to look like a robbery gone wrong, then went to work, leaving her daughter at the Del Rio Drive home. On Monday, a Rochester jury convicted Krauseneck, a former Eastman Kodak economist who did not complete his doctorate, of second degree murder for the February 19, 1982 crime.
A New York man was found guilty Monday of murdering his wife in 1982, according to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, an incident that lent inspiration to a novel adapted into Netflix movie released last year. The jury convicted James Krauseneck Jr. o… https://t.co/3kIaq5wNzN
— Kevin Fobbs (@kfobbs) September 26, 2022
"We did it, we did it, justice for Cathy. May my family finally heal," Annet Schlosser, Cathy's sister, told reporters outside the courtroom. “We have been doing this for 40 years. We faced pain and fear for this man and saw him escape in handcuffs and that was what we wanted. And I can't thank these two people here and the investigation team enough for doing this for us, it's great. "
During the trial
Prosecutors claimed that Krauseneck killed his wife with a single blow to the back of the head in their home and that no other DNA was present at the scene, suggesting that another attacker had entered the house.
At the time of the murder, Krauseneck told police he left for his job at Eastman Kodak around 6:30 am on the day his wife was killed. This timeline initially shifted the blame away from Krauseneck as a medical examiner initially concluded that Cathy died between 6:55 am and 8:55 am that day.
Later, when investigators re-examined this case in 2015 with the help of the FBI, eminent coroner Michael Baden determined that Cathy's body temperature actually indicated that she may have been killed while Krauseneck was in the House.
Prosecutors told jurors that the FBI was able to apply new forms of DNA testing to physical evidence at the crime scene, finding much of Krauseneck's DNA but nothing foreign. Assistant District Attorney Patrick Gallagher said after the guilty verdict that the jury "came to that conclusion on Monday because there were no other conclusions in this case."
Prosecutors also noted that after the murder, investigators learned that Krauseneck never completed his doctorate in college, but still taught at Lynchburg College and landed a job at Eastman Kodak. Both roles depended on Krauseneck having a doctorate. Authorities believe Krauseneck's false conclusion may have been a source of tension between him and his wife and realize they have found a marriage counseling pamphlet in the family car.
However, the former economist's defense attorneys insisted that the evidence in the case didn't necessarily point to Krauseneck. They also claimed that the police did not pay enough attention to Edward Laraby - a convicted murderer - who confessed to killing Cathy in a 1986 letter he wrote shortly before her death in prison.
This 1986 letter contained false information about the crime, which led authorities to believe that Laraby was not the real killer.
"It was written in context that he was dying, about to meet his enemy of him," defense attorney Bill Easton said at the trial. "There are some things wrong with the statement ... but some are consistent ... the idea of him cleaning the ax with a bath towel."
Krauseneck is sentenced in November and faces at least 15 years in prison.
