I read some comments that said they were disappointed in this version. Reviewed by KrazyFotoFreak 10 / 10 the best version Supporting roles are also solid especially the actress who played Ellen Dean and an interesting cameo by Sinead O Connor as Emily Bronte! The only complaint I could make about this film is that it's not long enough! Years seem to fly by far too quickly and we barely get an insight into why Cathy and Heathcliff's souls are intertwined. The poetic dialogue with Heathcliff and Cathy on the moors and the movie score complements this perfectly. The chemistry between him and Juliette Binoche is electrifying - Heathcliff and Cathy were born to be together and to see them almost forced apart by each of them failing to be true to their heart well. Capable of tenderness but torn apart by what he can't have all for himself.
Ralph Fiennes is an astonishing Heathcliff. This version, however, recaptures all that darkness and torment and shatters your soul with it.
That was saccharine and gave no hint as to the darkness of the original novel. It's probably a sacrilege to some to say that I thought the 1939 version with Laurence Olivier was awful, but there it is. I just watched this film tonight and I'm left shattered by it. Why it's taken me so long to see this version I don't know! Having been fascinated by the Brontes for several years and growing up in Yorkshire, I've longed to see a faithful adaptation of Wuthering Heights for a long time.
