Wuthering Heights

Wuthering Heights is a 2011 British Gothic romantic drama film directed by Andrea Arnold starring Kaya Scodelario as Catherine Earnshaw and James Howson as Heathcliff. The screenplay written by Arnold and Olivia Hetreed, is based on Emily Brontë's 1847 novel of the same name. Plot summary Heathcliff is found on the streets of Liverpool and brought back to Wuthering Heights on the Yorkshire Moors. The plot largely follows that of the book Wuthering Heights, but concentrates on the childhood and adolescence of its two main characters of Heathcliff and Catherine. Heathcliff is bullied and "whipped like a slave", as he is played by a multiracial actor which befits the original description of Heathcliff in the book.
