The Other Boleyn Girl, where she sounded, to my ears anyway, distinctly colonialPortman’s decision to walk away from Wuthering Heights will teach British filmmakers a valuable lesson, principally that they shouldn’t just go after a ‘name’ for commercial reasons.Interestingly, Ellen Page, of Juno fame, has just landed the title role in a BBC Film version of Jane Eyre, as much for financial reasons as artistic. But I happen to sense that Page is right for Eyre, whereas Portman would have been dodgy for Wuthering HeightsThere are plenty of quality British actresses who can play Cathy, from Andrea Riseborough, who is brilliant as the young Margaret Thatcher in the forthcoming BBC drama The Long Walk To Finchley, to Emily Blunt (so good in The Devil Wears Prada), Sienna Miller and Keira Knightley.Miller and Knightley, by the way, star in Maybury’s movie The Edge Of Love, which opens next month’s Edinburgh Film Festival. The director has coaxed the best screen work to date — particularly in the film’s last third — from these two oftenunderrateactressesCameras aren’t due to roll on Wuthering Heights till the autumn, so there’s still time to cast the right person for Cathy (which rules out Scarlett Johansson)The job will require tact, though — will Ms Knightley, for instance, want to take Natalie Portman’s leftovers? can see Christian Bale and Angelina Jolie together, engaged in a complex love-story. I know Batman Returns got there first with Michael Keaton/Michelle Pfeiffer, but I'm sure Christopher Nolan can find a slightly different, more intriguing way to tackle a romance where both parties have secret identitiesAnd what about The Penguin? Is he really that difficult to transplant into Nolan's Batverse? How about a disfigured mob boss whose features have given him the nickname of "The Penguin"? It seems achievable to me. The Riddler would also slot in very well, although his character's slightly too close to The Joker, really. Mr. Freeze? Poison Ivy? Both could be brought down-to-earth rather nicely, if audiences can wipe the memory of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Uma Thuman from their minds.There are
