An excited Frances O’Connor, Director of Emily, said, “It’s lovely to have Emily screened all the way out in Dubai. It’s a kind of a culture I am not very familiar with. This film helped me to interact with a new culture. I hope the audiences have an emotional experience during the movie Emily. I hope it helps them try to feel things and may be this movie will make the audiences read Wuthering Heights. That will be amazing.
