Wuthering Heights (2009) was an adaptation of the famous victorian gothic novel 'Wuthering Heights' which was written by Emily Bronte. This Tv series was written by Peter Bowker and directed by Coky Giedroyc. The film starred Tom Hardy, Charlotte Riley, Andrew Lincoln, Sarah Lancashire, Rebecca Night. The series was split into 2 episodes. 'Based on the classic novel by Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights is a story of love, obsession, hate and revenge. The protagonists, Cathy and Heathcliff, form a love that is dark and destructive and affects the lives of everyone around them.'
The original Wuthering Heights novel was written in Yorkshire dialect and when i came to reading it i found it very difficult to understand. I had to read through each chapter twice to make sure i sort of understood. Instantly i thought of trying to find clips on youtube of the different adaptations and thats when i came across this one. I found this so much easier to understand and it set the scene in my head so i could then put words from the novel to a scene in the series.
