Film Review – Wuthering Heights

WUTHERING HEIGHTS Still 2

Emily Bronte’s celebrated 1847 novel has been adapted time and again by
world cinema, with each production embracing the squeeze of unrequited
love and the abundant atmospheric trimmings of the original work. It’s a
timeless tale of obsession, yet this latest take on the material takes
matters into a harsher direction of internalized agony and violent
communication. It’s a lengthy picture with ambiance to spare, but it’s
something to be seen, offering a rejuvenated approach to the story that
dazzles with grit and grief, captured with an authentically terrifying
atmospheric approach that beautifully supports the discomfort and
anguish flowing through the veins of the performances. This “Wuthering
Heights” is not something to be passively accepted, but deeply felt,
down to the bone. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
