Wuthering Heights is a one-man show

There is only yourself here.
You can't see the shadow of anyone around you in it, it doesn't provide any real solace, the warmth of the world, and it's only yourself that moves you.
It can be why you hate it or why you love it to death.

People in real life don't fall in love like that.
Even childhood sweethearts grow deeply in each other's lives. Once you know that it is impossible, then leave the new possibility for her, turn around and leave without taking a cloud, it seems that you can rest assured and look forward, even if you recall it many years later, you will feel that you made the right choice Bar.
Even childhood sweethearts grow deeply in each other's lives. Once the lover leaves, chases them out in the rain and falls seriously ill, it seems that they can end their responsibility for this relationship and start a new life, no one will say anything. You will feel that way yourself.
This is the life of a normal person, let go of each other and provide broader possibilities for their own lives. After all, who can guarantee that moving forward will not encounter a better one?
This is the life of a normal person who is rational, believes in probability theory, has an open-minded, broad-minded, and has the courage to try.
However, I am not like this. I don't believe in probability, possibility, and the world. I only believe in my love.
Can't you?
Even if it ends up ruining the lives of everyone around you. But who cares about them? No one cared about Lynton, Isabel, Hendley. Wuthering Heights is a one-man show, it's just about Katherine and Heathcliff. And they were both alone.
It reminds us of our love.
If I love like that, can I be fully possessed and fully owned by one person?
No matter the disparity of status, no matter the public order and good customs, no matter if the lover has married someone else, no matter if she is dead, love as deeply, express love as deeply...
I will never say it is impossible, but you have to know that it is not realistic.
The love of two people is complicated, and the love of two people who live in society rather than in the wasteland is even more complicated. However, the good thing about Wuthering Heights is that it doesn't care about that. Love is spoken in sweet and terrifying words like never before, and then echoed. There is no misunderstanding or loss of information. Two hearts that fit together are actually one - in your chest when you watch it. Bang bang.

I love Wuthering Heights, not because I expected someone to love me like Heathcliff, nor because I regret not being as obsessed with love as Heathcliff. I love it because it shows the highest heights that love can reach, even if only in the human mind.
I can't live without my life.
I can't die without my soul.

There are only one soldier left in the two rooms, and the halberd is alone.

    Judging from the market at the time, this commercial film adapted from a famous novel was really rare, and Laurence Olivier playing such an infatuated tyrant was perfect. Although it was far from the essence of the original, it was still a film worth watching. ~

    Great Gatsby 100 years ago version, quack! At the beginning, no one was optimistic about a certain employee. After a few years, the king returned, and everyone called him the young master... the originator of the dog blood drama

    Judge Linton: Pack this fellow off.

    Heathcliff: I'm going. I'm going from here and from this cursed country both.

    Judge Linton: Throw him out!

    Heathcliff: But I'll be back in this house one day, Judge Linton and I'll pay you out. I'll bring this house down in ruins about your heads. That's my curse on you!

    [spits on the floor]

    Heathcliff: On all of you!

  • Heathcliff: I want to crawl to her feet, whimper to be forgiven... for loving me. For needing her more than my own life... for belonging to her more than my own soul.
