Movie Reviews of Wuthering Heights
Movie Review: Worth owning
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen many versions of this movie and this is one of my favorites! The cast was well chosen and you can feel the tension and romance between them. Ralph Fiennes is dark and brooding, just as he should be. Juliet Binoche brings a light to Catherine that contrasts Heathcliff well. The rest of the supporting cast lend just the right touches to complete the picture.
The cinematography is truly beautiul, moving, and draws the viewer right in.
Of course the icing on the cake is Ryuichi Sakamoto's haunting music. I bought the CD "Cinemage", a collection of his movie scores, just to have the main theme from this picture.
If you liked the book, and love a good romance, buy this DVD.
Better yet, buy it for someone you love!
Movie Review: The only film version of "Wuthering Heights" worth seeing
Summary: 5 Stars
I waited YEARS for this film to be released on DVD, and it is now one of the brightest gems in my movie collection. If you're looking for the best adaptation of Emily Bronte's novel, then this is the film for you. Juliette Binoche and Ralph Fiennes are perfectly cast as Catherine and Heathcliff, and although they both do a superb job, Fiennes steals the show as Heathcliff. The scenes leading up to and directly following Catherine's death are absolutely heartbreaking, and I cry every time I watch it! Binoche is wonderful in her dual role, and this is the only film version of "Wuthering Heights" that manages to accurately depict the beauty of Bronte's novel.Movie Review: A faithful and beautiful rendition of Bronte's classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Too few classics have been made into movies that value the author's plotline and characterizations. This movie exalts and personifies Bronte's book with stirring, wild intensity. From the dark wildness of the moor to the brutish, brooding character of Heathcliff to the wild, unpredictable Cathy, this movie captures it all. Heathcliff is brilliantly and memorably portrayed, and Binoche does a surprisingly good job in portrayal of both Cathy and Catherine. The characters literally walked off the pages of the book into this movie, giving a stirring, vivid performance. A wonderful movie not to be missed.Movie Review: Haunting...Tragic...Intense
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember seeing this film years ago on , I think , Masterpiece Theatre and wondering at Ralph Fienne's hypnotic, erotic, passionate portrayal of the tortured, manipulative, vindictive Heathcliff. Last night, I found myself watching bits of it on "YouTube" and fell in love all over again. Impulsive girl that I am, I immediately came here to amazon and bought the dvd. To me, there is no finer character in literature than Heathcliff and there is no more powerful study of the devastating effects of romantic love than Wuthering Heights. This film does justice to both.Movie Review: PERFECT CAST! Exactly like the book!
Summary: 5 Stars
There are not 2 other people on the planet that could have played the parts of Heathcliff and Cathy better than Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche. I was moved to tears. The movie stayed with me after watching it. Ralph Fiennes is one of the most amazing actors of our time, possible ever. He has an innate ability to express emotion and meaning with his eyes and he has never been better at it than in this classic movie.
This is truly one of the best movies ever made.
