The Church at Haworth where the Bronte family are laid to rest. The school building on the left is where Charlotte Bronte taught as a teacher. Emily Bronte was the author of 'Wuthering Heights'.
It’s good to know that W H Smith considers that Wuthering Heights is “one of the most unique gothic novels”. 😳

I am reading Homage to Catalonia by George Orwell. He was on guard duty on top of a building in Barcelona with his rifle. He said it was very boring and he was lucky to have some penguin paperbacks to read!
Pentru mine La Rascruce de Vanturi (Wuthering Heights) 1939 a reprezentat nu numai o mare poveste de dragoste clasica, dar si una din peliculele de referinta, cu atatmai mult cu cat filmul e regizat de preferatul meu, willim wyler.
Sir Laurence Olivier si-a dorit-o ca partenera pe Vivien Leigh, insa producatorul a tinut foarte mult ca rolul sa fie pastrat pentru Merle Oberon. Atat de mult o ura Laurence Olivier pe Merle Oberon, incat acest simplu fapt a fost decisiv in reusita anumitor scene. Ca si Vivien in Pe Aripile Vantului, el isi juca untr-un fel rolul propriei vieti
Wuthering Heights is a 1939 film, directed by William Wyler and produced by Samuel Goldwyn. It is based on the celebrated novel, Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, although the film only depicts sixteen of the novel's thirty-four chapters. The novel was adapted for the screen by Charles MacArthur, Ben Hecht and John Huston. Some consider it to be the best film version of Brontë's novel ever made (although it omits almost the entire second half of the book), and was the film responsible for making Laurence Olivier a Hollywood star. The film earned nominations for eight Academy Awards, including the awards for Best Picture, Best Actor and Best cinematography, which Gregg Toland won for his work on the film.

CUMBRES BORRASCOSAS de William Wyler. (“Wuthering Heights”, 1939). Escrita por Ben Hecht y Charles McCarthur. Fotografía de Greg Toland. Con Laurence Olivier, Merle Oberon, David Niven, Flora Robson, Donald Crisp, Hugh Williams, Geraldine Fitgerald, Leo G. Carroll. United Artists, USA. (****, de 4)
William Wyler tuvo una carrera ciertamente irregular. Lo mismo era capaz de hacer excelentes películas como “La señora Miniver” (1942) o “Los mejores años de nuestra vida” (1946) que de hacer verdaderos monumentos a lo mediocre y al cartón piedra ya no de los decorados sino de un estilo narrativo, como en “Ben-Hur” (1959) o “Cómo robar un millón” (1966) pero, sin dudarlo, fué un auténtico maestro. Sus excelentes películas nos hacen olvidar las mediocres y, con nuestra buena intención de cinéfilos incondicionales siempre nos sacaremos de la manga alguna buena excusa. Es natural y correcto. Entre sus filmes más antológicos está este, “Cumbres borrascosas”. Está basada en la novela homónima de Emily Bronté y ha sido una obra diversas veces llevada al cine, entre tantas otras se encuentra la que Luis Buñuel realizó en 1953 pero esta vez con el título que pasó a ser “Abismos de pasión”.
Esta versión de “Cumbres borrascosas” está muy bien pero, a mi modo de ver está anclada en los arquetipos básicos del melodrama pero, eso sí, es un melodrama elegante, sumido en esa elegancia de estilo que, por ejemplo podía verse en otras obras de Wyler como, por ejemplo, “La calumnia” (1961). Así que ya que he dicho que es una buena película también convendría destacar los aspectos fallidos del filme, y no fallidos sino muy corrientes. Es corriente en el melodrama coger un libro —por ejemplo— y convertirlo en una novela rosa y eso, en cierto modo, es un poco lo que ha perdido puntos de la película. La novela de Bronté no era una vulgar historia de amor (ya digo que muy bien tratada por Wyler) sino una triste historia de amor y odio. Es una historia desenfrenada sobre dos personas que se aman y que la fatalidad las hace amarse en el fondo aún pero odiarse. Cuando Katy muere resulta patético ver a todos rezando mientras Heathcliff maldice su alma para el resto de sus días. La “Cumbres borrascosas” de Wyler, sin embargo, pese a los fallos que halla podido tener es estupenda, el tratamiento de la luz muy acertado porque a la historia da un cierto hálito gótico muy bien logrado.
Sin embargo, por encima de los demás melodramas está este. Se podría llegar al fondo de lo que pretendía Bronté con el libro y lo que perseguía Wyler con su filme. En los dos hay una mutua conexsión que es una especie de relación demoníaca (Heathcliff es hermano bastardo de Katy), un incesto. Pero esto está tratado muy de refilón, ni siquiera se da a entender esta infernal relación entre los dos. Pero sin conocer este detalle es poco probable que entendamos el odio del hermanastro de Heathcliff (Laurence Olivier) hacia éste; le llama, entre otras cosas, “gitano” y es que es hijo de una gitana y el padre de los dos hermanos, Katy y su hermano (del que luego Heathcliff se vengaría sádicamente). Pero la película de William Wyler es casi redonda. Cuenta con una buena fotografía de Gregg Toland (“Ciudadano Kane” de Orson Welles), con una acertada música y con unas actuaciones excepcionales, predominando la de Laurence Olivier. La realización de Wiliam Wyler como ya he dicho es muy aceptable y la historia, que se desenvuelve entre el amor y la venganza está dotada de una elegancia y depuración de estilo sutil pero perceptible. (1982)

Brontë Country
Brontë Country can loosely be defined as the area containing the majestic landscapes and quiet Yorkshire villages which inspired the talented Brontë family. The windswept Brontë Moors and stone and slate hillside villages were known and loved by Emily, Anne, Charlotte, Branwell and Patrick. They were the basis, together with the people they met, for the settings and characters of the sombre novels, 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Jane Eyre'.
Haworth
Haworth was associated with the Brontë's sad life for forty-one years, from 1820 when the family arrived, until the death of their father, Patrick Brontë, the Parson, in 1861. Wycoller Hall, Ponden Hall and Top Withens, are all within walking distance of Haworth, across the wuthering (locally meaning "stormy") moors.
To a visitor, the Brontë story can seem very recent and on a gloomy day, with tourists gone, their presence can be strongly felt.
Top Withens, Haworth Moor
Set high on the windswept heather covered Yorkshire moorlands, the ruins of Top Withens both inspire and depress. Believed by many to be the setting for Emily Brontë's 'Wuthering Heights', the abandoned farm evokes the atmosphere of the Brontë sisters' novels. Here, a mere three miles from the hill-top village of Haworth, sombre isolation can be found in these wild, brooding moorlands. The Brontë sisters loved to roam these beautiful moors.
Charlotte wrote of her sister, Emily, 'They were far more to her than a mere spectacle; they were what she lived in and by …. She found in the bleak solitude many and dear delights; and not the least and best loved was – liberty.'
English class: we're reading Wuthering Heights and we were to do some creative project that had something to do with our interpretation of the book. Drawing, painting, song, poem etc. Well... my interpretation is that the whole plot pretty much surrounds Catherine and her love for Heathcliff. Catherine is angry at God. (which is stupid) for making Heathcliff of lower standards than her (shallow) and that's why she cannot marry him. (stupid AND shallow) So the bible is for the representation of God while the ring is for marriage and the heart shadow represents her love for Heathcliff...which is outside of her marriage to Edgar.

I'm not sure if this is a portion of the other sets shown for Wuthering Heights, or if this was a separate set used to represent another location in the film - it is much smaller than the other set shown. Man is one of the men from the buggy. Donated by Gerald Olsen. Photo ID # CTLols08.

East Riddlesden Hall is a 17th-century manor house in Keighley, West Yorkshire, now owned by the National Trust. The hall was built in 1642 by a wealthy Halifax clothier, James Murgatroyd. There is a medieval tithebarn in the grounds.
East Riddlesden Hall perches on a small plateau overlooking a bend in the River Aire on its way downstream from the town of Keighley. Interesting features include well-restored living accommodation on two floors, two Yorkshire Rose windows, walled garden, the ruined Starkie wing and several ghosts (reputedly). A hiding place for Catholic priests was installed during the 16th century.
The property was extended and re-built by James Murgatroyd and his wife Hannah, using local Yorkshire stone, in 1648. He also built other stone manor houses throughout the West Riding of Yorkshire. In the great hall, a small fireplace can be seen above the main fireplace, where the floor for the first floor accommodation was not built. James Murgatroyd was a Royalist and this can be seen in royalist symbols and graffiti on and in the building. For example, the Bothy (now the tea room and shop) has the heads of Charles I of England and Henrietta Maria of France carved in the top most stone work.
According to a NODA National News feature in 2007, the Murgatroyd family are reputed to be the inspiration for the Murgatroyd Baronets in the comic opera Ruddigore by Gilbert and Sullivan, and the opera has been performed at the Hall. W. S. Gilbert is supposed to have stayed often at the Hall. The feature comments that the Murgatroyds became notorious "for their profanity and debauchery". A legend arose that the River Aire changed its course in shame, in order to flow further away from the hall and its occupants(the river does indeed sweep into a wide U-bend to skirt the meadow, giving the building a wide berth). The feature continues "Members of the family were fined, imprisoned and excommunicated". It asserts that the character of Sir Despard Murgatroyd in Ruddigore is based on James Murgatroyd.
Filming location
East Riddlesden Hall has been used as a filming location for the 1992 film Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and for the 2009 TV adaptation. It was also used in Sharpe's Justice episode from the Sharpe TV series in 1997. It also featured in series eight of the paranormal television programme Most Haunted.
Top Withens, near Haworth, has been linked to the classic novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte (1847). It is not the building itself, but its situation on the moors which is thought to have inspired the author. The ruins, much visited although remote, have recently been restored.

I really love reading novels. My school gave us these and they are really amazing. "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte is one of my favourites ,other than that recently my elder sister downloaded the movie "The Count of Monte Cristo" (She read it before and got inspired) ,and it was brilliant ,indeed. I really loved how Edmond Dantes got the revenge and the ending. "Wuthering Heights" has got it's own charms and I really love it. Can you guys tell me your favourite novel (s) ? It's really amazing how some brilliant people write such stories that leave their mark forever in readers mind.

"I cannot express it; but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be an existence of yours beyond you. What were the use of creation if I were entirely contained here? My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff's miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning; my great thought in living is himself. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the Universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods. Time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees.. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath.. a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff.. he's always, always in my mind.. not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself.. but as my own being.."
