## Description

This brilliant adaptation of Emily Brontë's timeless tale breaks new ground by covering the complete story of a love so powerful that it reaches beyond the grave. Orla Brady (The Rector's Wife, Proof) stars as literature's most controversial heroine, the spirited, but tragic Cathy. Robert Cavanah (Cracker, Cadfael) plays Heathcliff, the dark stranger whose love for Cathy leads him to take terrible revenge on anyone who comes between them. Nothing is known of Heathcliff's mysterious past when kindly Mr. Earnshaw adopts him into his family, but his daughter Cathy sees in him a soul very much like her own. They are divided by birth, class, and Cathy's jealous brother, but nothing can break the bond between them- not even when Cathy marries the wealthy gentleman Edgar Linton. Yet there are forces in nature that seem to be even more powerful than their love.

Review: The best adaption and closest to the book - I really enjoyed this version out of all of the other versions I have seen..even though I love them all,I felt that this one stayed the closest to the book,with all of the strong and brutal emotions,especially the scene where Cathy dies...was written by the screenwriters with so much intensity and then played out also with so much intensity...and really to the book it just blows your mind...other versions have come close like 1.1970 Anna Calder-Marshall,2.1992.Juliette Binoche...and while I love also all of the versions..it was a real let down...with the 2009 death scene..it was a really good movie..but just did'nt exactly follow the book and some "artistic licenses were taken by the screenwriters",..that I felt should not have been taken..like for instance the time...Cathy is supposed to be telling Nelly all about her love and her intentions to marry Edgar...{but why she is telling Heathcliff?]..and she does'nt run off after Heathcliff in the rain...and also the scene where Cathy dies was pretty much null and void...But with this 1998 version you get it all the way Emily Bronte wrote it
Review: Great adaptation of a novel that was way ahead of its time - I find that this 1998 Masterpiece theater TV version follows the novel of the same name pretty faithfully. One who has never read the novel may find the action moving too quickly, so that the flow of the movie may seem slightly abrupt or choppy. However, the movie is only 2 hours long, which is probably why they had to cut out parts of the book and take some liberties with ages and certain details. That does not detract too much from the enjoyment of this movie, which despite its choppiness, has excellent acting, beautiful cinematography (the landscapes are breathtaking), and a wonderfully wrought out, bitter plot which focuses on three generations of two families who are intimately interlocked with each other. Heathcliff definitely comes off as the cruel, embittered man he is in the book, and it's great to see a TV movie capture the personalities of all the characters so well. Highly recommended movie and I'm so glad it's finally out on DVD, though I find the quality is hardly digital quality. But DVD is still a more enduring format than VHS and will most likely last longer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant!
*by N***T on October 23, 2007*

Has anyone who has reviewed this film observed the moment in the film when Heathcliff, as an adult, gazes down at the entrance to the cave where he and Cathy played together as children, and sees Cathy as a child? At the same moment, Cathy turns up to see his adult figure silouetted against the Sun. For one almost imperceptable moment, they see each other across time. The addition of this scene to the film, not in the book, is a stroke of absolute genius! (Spoiler alert) And this film tells the entire story, including Heathcliff digging up Cathy's grave to hold her corpse in his arms - love that drives you insane. Brilliant film and story! Emily Bronte is truly a literary giant!
