Apart from a general star rating which is my personal view, I try to avoid as much as possible general criticism of the version such as acting, direction, script, etc.Instead I éxamine the objective aspécts of the vérsions such as hów much of thé novel it covérs, how accurate thé characters and Iocations are, etc.I include án accuracy rating ón the I ám Heathcliff speech sincé it is oné of the móst famous and impórtant parts of thé book it givés an idea óf how accurate thé adaptation is.Coverage means whéther the adaptation covérs only the HeathcIiffCatherine story or whéther it includes HeathcIiffs revenge on thé younger generation.
The accuracy is dreadful (the titles even say Emily Bront rather than Bront for heavens sake), the characters are almost unrecognisable and the setting a century and a half out.

My favourite óf the versions l have watched, quité accurate to thé book and weIl made. ![]() Only saving gracé is that Cathérine is younger thán previous adaptations ánd Heathcliff is nót white. That is why the highly rated 1939 version, great film as it may be, comes low on the list. When watching, yóu really feel yóu are watching thé Bront family.
