Movie Reviews of Wuthering Heights

Movie Review: Classic Tale...Elegant, and Heart-Wrenching
Summary: 5 Stars

Ralph Fiennes, who is by far one of the most gifted actors of his time, teams up yet again with Juliette Binoche, his costar in English Patient, to make the Bronte tale come to life with superb acting, and vivid imagery,not to mention beautiful,albeit morose scenery. Makes one long to don a velvet cape, and stroll along the moors at dusk alone.Sure, this is a gloom and doom story, but it is just so superbly made...a visual treat.I love the Sinead cameo.Just a fine film.Highly Recommended.

Movie Review: Very Enjoyable
Summary: 5 Stars

I was looking for Wuthering Heights to share with my teenager son as he had to read the book for English Literature and I thought seeing it would make it more understandable. I picked this one over the wonderful classic with Sir Lawrence Olivier because the story line follows the book more closely. No movie follows a book perfectly but I appreciated that you could follow chapter by chapter. And yes, my son enjoyed it too.

Movie Review: Definitive Version of the Classic!
Summary: 5 Stars

This version is, of all the filmed productions, the very best one of this classic story. It goes way beyond chapter 17 in Emily Bronte's novel (Catherine's death), and follows the tragic but hopeful relationship which develops between Catherine's daughter Cathy and Hareton, Heathclife's only natural son. They almost become a tragic replay of their parent's live's, but fortunatly love alters their course in the end.

Movie Review: Best Version of All
Summary: 5 Stars

Finally, a version of Wuthering Heights that faithfully follows the book. While I cast no aspertions on the 1939 version, which did offer Oliver in an excellent portrayal, that film cannot compare to the more honest scenario & acting offered by Finnes & Binoche in the 1992 film. Undoubtedly (in my opinion) closer to what Bronte originally wanted the story to "feel" like.

Movie Review: One of my favorite movies of all time
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is beautifully done. Wonderful sets, costumes, and acting. You will not be dissapointed. I watch it once a year and have not tired of it yet. The plot and characters will draw you in from the beginning to end. I cry almost every time I watch it. Ralph F. and Juliet B. are absolutely excellent in the movie and in every movie. Highly recomended.
