Wuthering Heights

[Ric.ror]

Which version available is the best and which is the closest to the book

[Tilly2]

It's got to bethe Laurence Olivier one. He was a wonderful Heathcliff.

[emmie]

agree with Tilly..

[Prudie]

Personally I thought the really old one with Merle Oberon and Laurence Olivier kept closest to the book. The only thing that spoiled it for me was Olivier was not my idea of the dark broodingly handsome Heathcliff.

[Tilly2]

Here he is:

Heathcliffe was supposed to be very dark skinned, a gypsy boy, not exactly like Olivier, but his portrayal was the best i have seen...

[emmie]

tilly, that seems to go to google?

[Tilly2]

Flip. That doesn't work!

Why doesn't it work if you copy and paste the stuff in the address bar?

[emmie]

brooding, lovely....

[emmie]

not sure if i am honest, but that was just one of the photo's.

[Tilly2]

Em, what did you do that I didn't ? Nice picture that by the way.

[Ric.ror]

Oh I quite like the Olivier version but I don't think it remains close to the book

[emmie]

I second the vote for Olivier, it is a quite magnificent film.

One more try, thanks for the help, em.
