I agree with whomever wrote that they liked the music in this version of Wuthering Heights ... but that's about all I liked.
I'll start with the setting. Wuthering Heights felt more like a grungy farmhouse than the haunting fortress which I remembered from the book. What happened?
On to Anna Calder-Marshall as Cathy. THAT VOICE! Whenever she'd be summoning Heathcliff, that screeching of hers sent shivers (not good ones either) up my spine. No wonder he was always hiding. I think they should dub in the bit from the 1992 version that has the crows fleeing the tree, into the 1970 version when Cathy goes a shriekin' through the moors. Sublime.
Sorry, Dalton fans, he's taking the biggest hit. Timothy Dalton got the wrong script. He was acting out the Quasimodo part in the Hunchback of Notre Dame, I'm sure of it. I remember Heathcliff as being a little rough around the edges, but sheesh, I don't remember him grunting and dragging a foot around! He was like some aloof lout, more in need of orthopedic intervention than Cathy's love. He was not Heathcliff to me, but he made a very attractive Quasimodo.
No version of this movie is on par with the book. It's so tempting to put on film because the characters are so rich and the settings and story so perfectly gloomy ... it just never works.

This better be eligible for an Academy Award or there'll probably be riots in the streets! I can't laud Emma Thompson's performance enough. What a masterpiece of acting. I hope the seriousness of the subject matter doesn't deter people from seeing this film and Thompson's skill. This proves precisely why she's one of the best (if not THE best) actress working today. With any other actor I'd wonder how she could possibly top this, but I doubt that'll be a problem for her. I just watch her and I'm awed. Amazing.
was my seven year old son's response upon receiving his post-viewing survey card. He loved it. Which is good news for the movie since it's aimed at kids. My opinions aren't quite as gushing.
I was roped in by the trailers, its PG rating and the fact that it was NOT animated. The trailers let me down ... surprise. I didn't dislike it, I just didn't like it as much as I hoped I would.
I loved the sets! Very cool. And it was a good story that a 2nd grader had no trouble following. Downside: Antonio Banderas was in it ... that always blows a movie for me. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but as usual, that failed. He just always looks like he's posing to me ... aaaaaak. I asked my son what he thought about the guy who played the dad and his review was, "He was good but his fake mustache looked dumb". I think I muttered something about Zorro under my breath.
The kids playing Carmen and Juni were great. My son was rooting 'em on through their travails. They were likeable and you got the feeling that if any kids could've pulled off this wild scheme, they could.
Overall, it was harmless, my son loved it and I didn't fall asleep. That's about all you can hope for when sharing a movie with a seven year old son, I think. At least until another Babe, Princess Bride or Wizard of Oz comes out.
