The story timeline of "Wuthering Heights" is a bit long, and the movie can hold limited things, so I was very confused at first (yes, I came to watch the movie without reading the original book), and then I gradually understood the relationship between them. of sincere love. Catherine rejected Heathcliff because she didn't want to be with him and let him face the irony and ridicule brought about by class inequality. Heathcliff's departure and revenge were caused by the mistaken belief that Catherine also despised his existence and that she too had a strong sense of class. I found that in British love stories, I like counterattacks. In the "Far from the Crowd" that I watched before, the heroine changed from a commoner to a rich man with a large pasture and a villa overnight. And this, is the male protagonist from the servant to the master of Wuthering Heights. Perhaps the change in class attributes can aggravate the irony, and also give the male and female protagonists the opportunity to speak on the same level, although I feel that Heathcliff has always loved very humble. The later story about Katherine's daughter is not very understandable, Heathcliff imprisoned her, threatened her to marry his son, and then really succeeded (without legal constraints?). In addition, in that era, as long as a woman married a man, all the property in her name would belong to the man. She thought that Heathcliff had asked her to marry his son for the property in her name. But he just wanted to hear her call him "Dad" because Heathcliff wanted Catherine's child to be his father.
