[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that there is a strong undertone of race in the book, but my goodness can we talk about the poor women! Part of the complication was that women couldn't inherit or have money/property. It sucked! [/quote] Living at Wuthering Heights sucked but in the movie, at least, neither Cathy nor Heathcliff is shown to have any life skills, even basic household stuff like sewing or repairs. They never talk about how they'd live together and they make no plans to get out. If she hadn't married Edgar they'd have all kept the miserable status quo until they died. I read a review saying the book made it more plausible they could have been together, and that one of the sins of the film is making it completely justifiable that she went to Edgar. [/quote]
