The fiery romance of Heathcliff and Cathy reignites in this thrilling new adaptation of Emily Bronte's classic love story.
Set against the stark beauty of the English moor, the mysterious gypsy boy Heathcliff, adopted by the Earnshaw family, discovers his soul mate in his stepsister Cathy. But as a man unable to have the love of his life, he seeks vengeance against anyone who comes between them.
In one of the greatest romances of all time, this adaptation stars Tom Hardy (The Virgin Queen, Oliver Twist) as Heathcliff, and newcomer Charlotte Riley as the heroine Cathy.
Okay just to let you know I've never read the book, but after watching this film I plan to. When I first watched this movie I was so entranced by depth of the actors preforms and just the beauty of the landscape. You can't help but feel yourself drawn into the movie and traveling through the film seeing it as if you were right there with the Heathcliff (Tom Hardy) and Cathy (Charlotte Riley) as the story unfolded.
