[quote=Anonymous]Just watched it and loved it! It was surprisingly funny, highly theatrical, and the actors brought out different sides to their characters (amplifying them, and mainly making them more likable, IMO). The metaphors were larger than life—it felt almost like the set of a play (perhaps a bit heavy handed, but a clear stylistic choice). I liked the pre-marriage chemistry between Cathy and Heathcliff the best. I agree that the movie was “inspired by” vs “based on” the book (which I read in January, so very fresh). I appreciated the layer that Thrushcross Grange was also a place of imprisonment for Cathy, albeit a sparkly one. I missed Hareton and the possibility of redemption for the second generation, but also appreciated the need to whittle down the storyline. Nelly’s backstory was also an interesting wrinkle, and she was even more interfering than in the book. [/quote]
