5 Stars One of the classics
A person who can sit and watch this movie and now cry and the end, simply has no heart. There are no words to describe this gripping movie, other that it catches the reallife stories of men and women throughout the ages. These lifelike stories will not age or fade, since love is no different now than it was when the movie was made or the book was written down.
For some obscure reason Hollywood wants to remake classic movies like Wuthering Heights, probably thinking it will improve the original. They would be wise to stay clear from this movie, since there is no improving possible on the original.
Top of the list and highly recommended.

1 Star Paid but never received
I can’t review this product when it has never been received. Thirty-two days have elapsed since the order was confirmed and Amazon has failed to follow through with their portion of the purchase agreement. Regardless if I receive my payment back I will never purchase through this organization ever again.

Wuthering Heights-1939, Black & White.
A story of a boy and girl who grow up, becoming a man and woman in love, but are separated by his extreme poverty and his low station in life; in a time in England, in the 1700’s, when station in life was very important and set. The boy, the man, in hopeless poverty, is treated badly by the rich and seeks to give as good as he gets.
Some charming scenes of the boy and girl in their happy childhood. The story grabs your attention and holds it. Yet it is not a happy story. The characters get quite intertwined; he loves her, but she doesn’t know….maybe…maybe not…and all this time there is the bitter feuding between him and that guy and him that other guy.
Excellent acting, sets, and pace. Some thought-provoking dialogue. An all-star cast with the lovely Ms. Merle Oberon as Kathy; Laurence Olivier and David Niven.
It is a story of infatuation rather than true love. See under the “comment” button below for my reasoning; placed in the comment section because it gives away some of the story.
If you like Ms. Merle Oberon; she is also in the great film “The Scarlet Pimpernel-1935″. Laurence Olivier is in the happier film “Pride and Prejudice-1940″.

I am still waiting for this! I am hoping to get it before Christmas. I’m sure once I get it, it will be awesome.
