A couple of Wuthering Heights at the Institut Lumière

The Institut Lumière (Lyon, France) proposes today, February 22, a soirée where two film versions (arguably the best ones) of Wuthering Heights can be compared. The initiative is part of the retrospective that the Institut is devoting to Luis Buñuel:

22/02 19:00
Abismos de Pasión (this film can also be seen the following days:
Su 25/02 16h30 | Wed 28/02 19h

And after Luis Buñuel's very personal Wuthering Heights, the classical William Wyler 1939 version:
