Wuthering Heights movie plot

2022-07-13 17:57
Heathcliff, a gypsy orphan picked up from the street by Mr. Earnshaw, has been abused since childhood, but Catherine, the host's daughter, admires his wildness. As a teenager, Heathcliff ( Tom Hardy ) develops a strong love for Katherine ( Charlotte Riley ). But worldly hierarchies destroyed his love. Catherine is married to Lord Linton ( Andrew Clutterbuck Andrew Lincoln) of Thrush Manor. Heathcliff's intense love turned into an intense hatred of the outside world, which in turn turned into a ruthless revenge conspiracy. All love, all hatred, finally turned into a howling wind, passing over the lonely grave, blowing across the desolate wilderness.

Wuthering Heights quotes

  • Cathy: [contemplative, facing the fireplace, upon hearing someone walk in] If that's you, Nellie, then I am sorry for scolding you. I wish now that you had stayed.

    Heathcliff: [walking up to Cathy] It is not Nellie, it is I.

    [while Cathy still refuses to look into his eyes]

    Heathcliff: Why, Cathy, what is it? What's the matter?

    Cathy: [finally looking up and at him, solemnly] Edgar Linton has asked me to marry him.

    Heathcliff: [searching Cathy's eyes] And, have you given him your answer?

    [Cathy nods negatively]

    Heathcliff: But you did not say no!

    [Cathy nods negatively, again]

    Heathcliff: And have you considered how you will bear the separation from me, and how I would be quite deserted in the world without you?

    [pauses for a moment]

    Heathcliff: Did you consider that?

    Cathy: You quite deserted! We separated! Who is to separate us, pray?

    Heathcliff: [stressing his each word] You would be Mrs. Linton.

    Cathy: Yes. As Mrs. Linton I can aid you to rise and place you out of my brother's power.

    Heathcliff: [with controlled indignation] With your husband's money you'll rescue me...

    [walking away from Cathy towards the door, and then turning back]

    Heathcliff: Do you think I can endure such a thing?

    [Cathy rushes to Heathcliff, attempts to kiss him]

    Heathcliff: [holding Cathy back, accentuating each word, with loathing] You will be Mrs. Linton.

  • Heathcliff: [bending over Cathy's coffin] You said I'd killed you... Haunt me then... Be with me always... Take any form, drive me mad but don't leave me. In this abyss where I cannot find you... I cannot live without my life, I cannot live without my soul...
