Rating: 55/100 --
It's an unmotivated, loose script with a rambling tale and impotent casting that degrades this otherwise mildly satisfying hanky-fest.

Rating: 2/5 --
A valiant attempt at compressing a novel as complex as Bronte's into under 2 hours, but 'valiant' shouldn't be mistaken for 'failed'.

Peter Kosminsky's Wuthering Heights is a drone, depressing, and exhaustively revolting excuse for entertainment

A brave stab, but it doesn't always pierce the heart.

...weakened by a wobbly central perf by Gallic thesp Juliette Binoche.

Variety
Ralph Fiennes makes a demonic Heathcliff, his startlingly blue eyes the only concession to a matinee audience. This performance reminds us that early reviewers of the book were not wrong, when they wondered at the morbidity of its romanticism.

Product Description:
Masterpiece Theatre presents this adaptation of Emily Brontë's Gothic novel starring Orla Brady as Cathy, the story's tragic heroine. In the prototypical amour fou, Cathy engages in a passionate love affair with Heathcliff, a dark stranger taken in by her family. However, their relationship is thwarted by their class differences, the disapproval of Cathy's parents, and her eventual marriage to Edgar Linton. Faithfully rendering Brontë's enormously moving tale of obsession, passion, fate, and revenge, this production of WUTHERING HEIGHTS is sure to please not only devotees of the novel but neophytes as well.
