A stunning version of Emily Bronte’s classic, the immortal love story set amid the bleak beauty of Haworth Moor; the landscape over which towers the wild, terrible figure of Heathcliff. The tale of his searing passion for the beautiful Catherine Earnshaw has the vividness of nightmare, the beauty and simplicity of an old ballad and depth and intensity of ancient tragedy.
