Rare T Merle Oberon and Laurence Olivier’s chemistry is so strong that not only do they meticulously convey the feeling of being in love, but they also make it feel as realistic as if it were in real life, even as if the audience was feeling it. Only Jean Arthur and Charles Boyer had come close to a chemistry like this in History Is Made at Night (1937). Once that feeling is established, that’s where the magic of the rest of the movie happens. So one has to feel it to understand the strength of the story, regardless of having had read the book or not. And it’s no surprise that above all, Wuthering Heights won an Academy Award for its cinematography. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Leaburn O Never read the book but damned that’s actually a decent plot for a period piece and the film was excellent with a stellar cast all putting in good turns. Watched on Amazon Prime. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Ebony C As a lover of the book this movie wasn't great. Entirely deleting 3 main characters, taking many liberties with the story and creating brand new plot devices instead of those from the books is maddening. Heathcliff slapping Cathy (oh my god) and Cathy not being elated at his return grieved me the most. Having said all of that, the film making was impeccable and the for the most part the casting was good. If you look at the movie to stand alone from the book then it worth the watch. Knowing the story as well as I do though, it is really quite distracting. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/18/23 Full Review MissMK - One of my all-time favorite movies since I was a little girl. My Grandmother was a big movie buff and introduced me to so many classics that are forever embedded into how I gauge and interpret films. It also made me want to act at a young age. Everyone's performance in this was so believable and full of every emotion needed to be perceived in each scene. The father's love but detachment, her brother's depression, her confusion and war of emotions within herself. Societal issues and more.... If you haven't watched this original yet, get to it. It's a story you will not forget.
