[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The book made his race the reason they couldn't be a match. The movie reduces it to class.

I think it was a miss. When a book from the 1800s can be more insightful about race than a movie in 2026, that's kind of wild. [/quote]

A “gipsy” man or any person who was darker than the usual Engish person would have been considered below them.  He wasn’t necessarily black.

Regardless, it’s interesting that those of you upset by Elordi’s casting have nothing to say on the topic of Hamilton, a musical about REAL people who happened to be white but were played by POC.  At least Heathcliff is fictional.[/quote]

Someone addressed Hamilton above, you just disagree with the viewpoint of PPs.[/quote]

You mean the person who said Hamilton (a show based on real people) was “open to interpretation”?   :lol:

Guess what:  a fictional character is most definitely “open to interpretation.”[/quote]

Only people who don't know what lascar means would think it's open to interpretation. It was a common word when the book was written. [/quote]
