Childhood Shadows and Twisted Love

It's more like a remake of the original.

Uncle Tang interprets Heathcliff's wildness and hatred and dark temperament very well, especially the shrill scream when he learned of Catherine's death, which made people tremble and heartache.

In my opinion, Catherine is selfish. She wants to enjoy Lin's love and his material things, but she has a deep love for Heathcliff in her heart, but how can she have the best of both worlds? She made the choice of marrying Lin and giving her first time, which deeply hurt Heathcliff, who was very vengeful under the influence of childhood shadows. Heathcliff's love turned into extreme love. revenge. And every time his revenge, it is to connect their hearts more closely and confirm their feelings.

It is what we now call "mutual harm" between couples. One party obtains emotional satisfaction by arousing the other's jealousy and sense of crisis, but what's the point? The root cause is to love each other, but there is no way to completely trust. In addition, both the film and the original book focus on showing the psychological impact of childhood experiences on the whole life, especially reflected in the heroine's older brother, from a doted son to a so-called "Gypsy" orphan who was adopted by his father. The knife robbed her of love, and the hatred for Heathcliff pervaded her brother's entire life.

True, the arrival of Heathcliff completely changed the fortunes of both families, but he was sympathetic.

In modern life, where can there be such a strong love as in the novels. In the past, because the contact with the outside world and people was too limited, it was often those few people who could think of it, thus producing such deep feelings, now? If there is a slight disagreement, it is a big deal and continue to look for it.

    Heathcliff: It's your pause that betrays you.

    Cathy: I'm frightened.

    Heathcliff: Of what? Of me? Or poverty?

    Cathy: You're asking me to risk my reputation. Once a woman's reputation is gone she has nothing.

    Heathcliff: [incredulous] The old Cathy would never have said such a thing.

    Cathy: The old Cathy didn't know the world and how it regarded...

    Heathcliff: [grabs Cathy, interrupting her] I tried to leave you. Your love holds me here. Now if you mean to be indifferent to me as least do me the favor of releasing me.
