Wuthering Heights
(1939) dir William Wyler w/Merle Oberon, Olivier, David Niven, Flora Robson, Geraldine Fitzgerald [103 min]

This definitive version of Emily Bronte’s classic novel is amongst the most romantic movies of all time. Olivier plays Heathcliff, a foundling who is raised by the residents of Wuthering Heights and whose fate becomes entwined with the daughter of the house, Cathy (Oberon). Characterized by its moody black-and-white style, WUTHERING HEIGHTS won the great cinematographer Gregg Toland (Citizen Kane) his only Oscar.

Jane Eyre 1934, as we have said previously is now in the public domain. It's not unusual to find new releases by different small labels:
Jane Eyre (1934) D: Christy Cabanne
