Wuthering Heights: Review

WUTHERING HEIGHTS
starstarstarstarstar
William Wyler's film version of Emily Bronte's famous novel was another of the masterworks of 1939, an unrivaled year in the history of Hollywood that also saw the release of Gone With the Wind, Stagecoach and The Wizard of Oz. The story of Heathcliff (Laurence Olivier) and Cathy (Merle Oberon), his childhood love, has been condensed quite a bit from Bronte's original, but the mood remains haunting and tragically romantic. Gregg Toland won an Academy Award for his brilliant cinematography — moody black-and-white that's perfectly suited to the material. Read the complete review for Wuthering Heights
