Every generation has its own Wuthering Heights, apparently, but I cannot quite get over the incredible 2000s-ness of this 2009 version’s DVD cover, starring Tom Hardy as Professor Heathcliff Snape.

Oh yeah, Angela Scoular. Came to a sad end. The actress, not the film. Well, maybe that too.@decembr14 Yes I just read about that, very sad.

And then of course there’s pre-Lovejoy, pre-Deadwood Ian McShane as Heathcliff in the 1967 TV version. A Heathcliff with a firm grasp of how handsome he is. Adam Ant could never.
I’m a huge Lovejoy fan, been rewatching all the episodes free on the Daily Motion website.

I have not seen the 2003 MTV version. The DVD cover doesn’t quite sell it to me.
Apparently it’s a musical about “Cate” and “Heath” and “Hendrix” (Hindley), also featuring Francis from Malcolm In The Middle.

@DrOinFL I haven’t watched it since it was first on, but I did enjoy it at the time.

My goodness, this looks shit.

@Nickiquote all i can think about here is how they obviously watched _10 things i hate about you_ first, although it doesn't seem likely they learned much from the experience

@Nickiquote I'm not entirely sure why. I get that it's a landmark work in the genre of profoundly unlikeable people who deeply deserve each other, but surely we only have to endure that once?

The book was bad enough ...

@Nickiquote McShane really has that smouldering darkness going on.

@Nickiquote It’s Katherine Heigl, of course it is

@futurebird Wuthering Heights would have been weirder if the main character was Garfield.

I might have paid more attention to it TBH.
Is there more to it than period romance? Did I miss something good just because I didn't like the kind of people who kept talking about it?

(Didn't like as a teen. I was very much "ew it has kissing" for most of my early years. I grew up a little... maybe. )

@futurebird It’s more gothic and overwrought, but also quite complicated. Like Cathy dies halfway through the book, and a lot of the adaptations stop without telling the rest of the story.
