Product Description:
Cathy earnshaw is heathcliffs foster sister: more than that she is his other half. When forces within and without tear them apart. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 08/24/2004 Starring: Ralph Fiennes Simon Ward Run time: 105 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Peter Kosminsky
Amazon.com:
Peter Kosminsky's 1992 adaptation of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights goes to the extreme of casting Sinéad O'Connor in a brief bit as Brontë herself, but the film still doesn't approach the accomplishment of William Wyler's classic 1939 production (with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon) or subsequent versions by Luis Buñuel and Robert Fuest. That doesn't make it unwatchable, however: it still offers The English Patient costars Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche as doomed lovers Heathcliff and Cathy. Binoche is a bit washed-out, but Fiennes makes a strong impression as the rejected laborer who makes his fortune and exacts a vengeance. Unlike Wyler's film, this one covers all the chapters of Brontë's book, but it is sodden with misery and lacks all grace. --Tom Keogh

It's a bit of a disaster, this movie. I thought I ought to try and balance out the 5-star reviews that top the pile of most recent comments with a few of my own before anyone actually buys the DVD. Rent it first, if you still can, and see what you think. Like any movie from a book, it's bound to draw comparisons with the original story. If you're not familiar with the story you might think oh, it's a bit odd, but not so bad. If you are familiar with the story but you've never been to Yorkshire ... Read More

The performance of Binoche and Finness in Wuthering Heights was amazingly powerful. People often criticize the movie, but, I believe, the director was extraordinarily faithful to the original story. All criticism was directed at how sadistic Heathcliff(Ralph Fiennes) was towards everybody. It is the director's right to add or omit whatever he finds necessary to make a movie version of the book. In this case, the director's choice was to have the characters semi identical to the book's original ones. ... Read More

Lots of people watch or read Wuthering Heights expecting a grand love story. It is NOT a love story; anything but!
It's a story of obsession, revenge and destruction, and finally of rebirth in the next generation. (Remind anybody of Tess of the D'Urbervilles? It should.)
This is an excellent film version. I watched it over twice in the same sitting. (And, I've read the book.)You could hardly imagine a more sinister tale better told than this. The main characters' utter devotion to their own ... Read More

I received this video quickly and much to my surprise. It is a good movie which really helped me to understand the book better.
Rating:  -
I understand the script of the movie closely matches the original classic, but results in a rather uninspired rendition that even Juliette Binoche and Ralf Fiennes can not enliven. The DVD is definitely worth it for anyone (like me) wanting to get to know the story without reading the novel but is otherwise a little tedious to watch.
