CRITICS OF "Wuthering Heights (1939)"

The Nation

The cast is faultless.

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

It's okay, but it's the kind of classic that puts people off classics.

Kansas City Kansan

The definitive version.

October 16, 2004

Tim Dirks' The Greatest Films

Wuthering Heights (1939) is director William Wyler's tale of doomed love, conflicting passions, and revenge, one of Hollywood's all-time most romantic/drama classics.

January 01, 2000

Resource

culturevulture.net

Wyler's shot composition, production values, and art direction were the most impeccable in the industry.

September 10, 2002

Resource

EmanuelLevy.Com

Ace cinematographer Gregg Toland deservedly won the Oscar for his moody b/w imagery in William Wyler's supremely mounted production of Bronte's tragic novel; the only mediocre element is Merle Oberon's performance.

March 16, 2008

Resource

Variety

Emily Bronte's novel tells a haunting tale of love and tragedy. Samuel Goldwyn's film version retains all of the grim drama of the book. It's heavy fare throughout.

This is a first-class Hollywood production.

Best version of the Gothic-romance revenge tale.
