Wuthering Heights is the story of a tortured love affair between Heathcliff (Laurence Olivier) and Cathy (Merle Oberon), her escape by marriage to the wealthy Edgar (David Niven) and Heathcliff’s savage retaliation upon the woman he loves. Hailed as a “timeless masterpiece”, director William Wyler’s film is the definitive vision of gothic melodrama.Wyler’s evocative shot compositions are perfectly complemented by Gregg Toland’s haunting black and white cinematography which won him his only Oscar®. Featuring a stellar cast including Oscar®-nominated performances from Olivier and Geraldine Fitzgerald and with stunning art direction and production design, this exploration of social class and impossible love, is both strikingly atmospheric and passionately moving.
