I have always liked this book very much, I like the unadulterated love between heathcliff and catherine, the absolute love, the deep hatred, everything extends, blends and despairs in the endless wasteland. The novel Gothic has a strong artistic conception, which is more like a dream than reality. It always makes it difficult for me to see the whole picture of the story, but I still can't help but immerse myself in it and linger. So in fact, it is not easy to adapt such a novel into a TV series or movie. I have seen the 53-year-old version before, and the content has been deleted a lot, and it is also very different from the original, so I don't like it very much. I watched the 2009 version today, and I feel that the filming is not bad. At least many scenes and plots can correspond to the book, and the plot is complete, including the grievances from when heathcliff was a child to their next generation. I linked their stories together. As for the actors, heathcliff is very handsome (the one who played "Inception"). I have no opinion on this, but catherine is really ugly, which makes me unacceptable, and the script portrays her Not enough, after watching the movie, I can't convince myself that she is the catherine in the original book. As for the choice of other actors, I think they are all very good, and their performances are also in place. But the biggest regret of this show is that the screenwriter is not good enough. Many classic scenes in the book have been adapted or directly abridged. For example, heathcliff eavesdropped on the conversation between catherine and nally, catherine was hysterical in the rainy night when heathcliff left, and the most important The scene where Cathy met with heathcliff before his death was deleted by the screenwriter so that there were almost no lines. You must know how much I liked their mutual confession that night, and then parted from life and death, I will never forget heathcliff gritted his teeth and said: " I love those who hurt me, but what about yours, how can I forgive?" In short, there are always regrets, but maybe these scenes can be filled with imagination, the premise is to replace the heroine~ I
just found the English of that sentence Version: "Kiss me again, but don't let me see your eyes! I forgive what you have done to me. I love my murderer--but yours! How can I?"
Ch. 15
The following passage is also very touching: 'And I pray one prayer--I repeat it till my tongue stiffens--Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living; you said I killed you--haunt me, then! The murdered DO haunt their murderers, I believe. I know that ghosts HAVE wandered on earth. Be with me always--take any form--drive me mad! only DO not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you ! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I CANNOT live without my life! I CANNOT live without my soul!'
Ch. 16
