Relatively good version, greatly beautified Heathcliff

This version still reflects some of the advantages of the original, and overall it is considered to be the better version of the film and television version. The length of the film and television version is limited, and the story of cutting off the second generation is understandable.

The biggest difference from the original is the character of Heathcliff.

In the original book, Heathcliff is the villain who perfectly blends soulful and wild tyranny, which is extremely impressive. His greatest evil was the abuse of innocent Isabella and the torture of the next three, including his own son. But this version cut off all the stories of the second generation. After Isabella married him, I didn't see how he abused her, but she didn't love her very much, and her life was not very good. Even at the end of the story, the two of them were still together. It was the husband and wife, not as in the original book, she escaped early and died.

Therefore, it is relatively obvious that this version of Heathcliff is a normal man who is affectionate and has some revenge at the same time.

Catherine is average. It is said that she has a very bad relationship with Lawrence Oliver, but it is more suitable than the 92 version of Binoche.

Wuthering Heights quotes

  • Cathy: He seems to take pleasure in being mean and brutal. And yet, he's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same. And Linton's is as different as frost from fire... Ellen, I AM Heathcliff.

    [thunderbolt]

    Cathy: Everything he's suffered, I've suffered. The little happiness he's ever known, I've had too. Oh, Ellen, if everything in the world died and Heathcliff remained, life would still be full for me.

  • Heathcliff: Why are your eyes always empty? Like Linton's eyes.

    Isabella: They're not empty, if you'd only look deeper. Look at me. I'm pretty. I'm a woman and I love you. You're all of life to me. Let me be a single breath of it for you.
