What is this?
This is an agreement that Mr Heathcliff has first option
to purchase any more land and buildings you may wish to sell.
This is the balance of the account, sir.
Joseph! Saddle up Hunter.
Had I known I could ruin the man in the space of three months,
I would have come back sooner.
I thought I would never find this place.
That's why I told you to bring Cathy's horse.
She could find her way up here in the dark.
Is this the place where you bring all your sweethearts?
Only Cathy before you.
And is that how it is always going to be?
Cathy before me?
I saw a spirit in you last time I saw you at the Grange, Isabella,
that has stayed with me.
It is as though your brother has a woman's gentleness
and you have all the fight.
I cannot tell whether you are flattering me or not.
Everything you hear about me is bad.
Yet you see some good in me,
else why would you be here?
Perhaps I am attracted to the bad in you.
No. Do not make a joke of it.
A person who sees good in me is a sensation I experience so rarely
that it is enough to make me want to at least try to love you.
What are you about? Raising this stir?
I said you must let Isabella alone, I beg you.
Unless you are tired of being received here
and wish Edgar to draw the bolts against you!
God forbid he should try! God keep him meek and patient!
I love Heathcliff more than you have ever loved Edgar
and he might love me if you would let him!
I know he could never love a Linton!
And yet he's quite capable of marrying you to hurt me,
he has as good as told me!
I don't believe you.
I don't believe you!
What is it to you? I have a right to kiss her, if she chooses,
and you have no right to object.
I'm not your husband.
There is no need for you to be jealous.
If you like Isabella, you shall marry her.
But, do you like her, Heathcliff? Tell the truth.
Answer me.
Answer me!
You will not leave here until you answer me.
If I imagined you wished me to marry Isabella,
- I'd cut my throat! - Take her, if it pleases you!
You clearly prefer the bliss of inflicting misery to the bliss of our love!
This is insufferable!
It is disgraceful that you should own him for a friend
and force his company on me.
Is that how you call it, sir?
I have so far been forbearing with you, sir.
Your presence is a moral poison that would contaminate the most virtuous.
For that cause, and to prevent worse consequences,
I shall deny you, hereafter, admission into this house.
Cathy, this lamb of yours threatens like a bull!
It is in danger of splitting its skull against my knuckles.
I require your instant departure, sir.
One minute's delay will render it involuntary and ignominious.
- No, I will not move until I hear an apology from you. - An apology?
After constant indulgence of both men,
I earn for thanks two samples of blinding gratitude!
Edgar, I was defending you and yours.
Cathy, please get out of my way.
- Apologise. - Get out of my way!
Make an apology or allow yourself to be beaten.
All I want is your happiness!
But I am, I must admit, utterly defeated in this.
Indeed I can only attribute your spite and venom and betrayal
to some unfathomable damage deep inside your heart.
To think anything else is to think so badly of you that I cannot bear it.
Well, I must compliment you on your taste, Cathy.
This is the slavering thing you would prefer to me!
Heathcliff! No! I beg you!
Go!
Remain where you are, Cathy.
I shall not stay. But I wish to learn whether after this day's events,
you intend to continue your intimacy...
Oh, for mercy's sake! Just let us hear no more of it!
To get rid of me - answer my question.
Will you give up Heathcliff hereafter or will you give up me?
It is impossible to be my friend and his at the same time
and I absolutely require to know which you choose.
- You cannot make me choose! - I demand it!
And if I choose to remain friends with him?
Then I shall ask you to leave this house.
May I speak?
To chastise me for my weakness? To mock me for my kindness?
If you hear me out and you still want me to leave,
then I shall relinquish any claim I have on you.
Very well.
If you cast me out, you shall cast out both your wife and child. I am with child, Edgar.
I'm with child.
- I came to you. - So I see.
Though after your brother's threats and entreaties,
I had rather you didn't.
He has, after all, threatened my life.
Cathy is with child.
You are lying.
Has Edgar put you up to this?
Sir,
any loyalty I feel in this is entirely to you.
That is why I have come here to tell you this.
Even though he warned me that if I was insane enough
to encourage what he calls my worthless suitor,
he will dissolve all bonds of relationship between him and me.
Yet, as you see, I am here.
Feed and water the horses then bed them down.
My bride and I shall be staying here for the night.
Could you...? My fastenings.
Thank you.
Don't look at me.
She's gone.
Isabella has gone. She has run off with Mr Heathcliff!
This is not true. It cannot be.
The lad who fetches the milk told me they were spotted two miles out of Gimmerton.
And I have checked her room and her bed is not slept in
so they have a day's start!
How will you catch up with them?
She went of her own accord. She had a right to go if she pleased.
No, master. She is bewitched!
Hereafter she is only my sister in name, not because I disown her,
but because she has disowned me.
And who shall tell the mistress of this turn of events?
No-one.
Since Isabella is no longer a member of her family,
she needn't be troubled by news of her.
Yes, sir.
- You are deceiving me! - Shush, mistress.
I promised the Master I would not tell you.
I thought it might help you to accept your new life
- if you knew what Heathcliff - If I knew what?
That Heathcliff has betrayed me? That he has put a knife through my heart?
- Give over that talk! - Stop that! Miss Cathy.
Mistress!
Get off me!
Just stop that!
Please, my love.
Please.
It's all right, my love. It's all right.
You were dreaming.
Stay with me, Nelly.
If only I were in my own bed in the old house.
And that wind rattling against the lattice.
Do let me feel it.
It comes straight down the moor. Let me...
Let me have one breath!
When will Heathcliff return?
I do not know.
If he felt anything for you he would never return and let you be.
Now try and put him out of your mind.
I cannot, Nelly.
I cannot.
He will not let me.
Where are we going?
Although it may not appear to be the case,
I have tried over these past four months to make myself love you
but I cannot.
What is preventing such a thing from happening?
- I think you know. - Nevertheless,
I would like to hear you say her name.
Your eyes detestably resemble your brother's...
a dove's eyes, an angel's eyes.
So I cannot bear to look at them without wishing you ill.
I abandoned my elegancies, my comforts and my friends of my former home
to marry you.
You married me under a delusion.
Then you shall let me go home to the Grange, sir.
You shall go home
but not to the Grange. The Heights will be your home
and I will not have you disgracing me by rambling abroad.
I cannot allow that.
Surely in your heart you feel some pity.
I have no pity.
Joseph! Joseph!
Where are you? Damn you.
Is he come back then?
I thought he had gone for good.
We came just now.
But he left me and as I don't know where he is...
Be sure to lock your door.
I cannot resist going up there with this every night
and trying his door.
If once I find it open,
he's done for!
What is it?
I am tired after my journey.
I will show you to your room.
- My room? - I sleep in here.
What news is there of Cathy?
Mrs Linton has not been well.
She'll never be like she was, but her life is spared.
If you really have a regard for her, you'll shun crossing her way again.
I must exact from you a promise that you'll get me an interview with her.
I say you must not.
And you never shall through my means. She is too weak.
Consent or refuse, I will see her!
You know as well as I do
for every thought she spends on Edgar, she spends a thousand on me.
And if I thought it were otherwise, two words would comprehend my future...
death and hell.
Do not persist in this, sir,
or I shall be obliged to inform my master
and he shall take measures to secure his house.
- Who did you see today, Nelly? - No-one in particular.
Joseph at church, of course, outpraying the Bishop as usual.
You're lying to me, aren't you?
You have too much imagination and I have too little.
I cannot make sense of you some days.
I know he is back.
I can feel him close, so there is no use in trying to deceive me.
Why am I so changed?
Well, you eat so little and you will not drink and you've made yourself weak.
I wish I were outdoors.
I wish I were a girl again...
- half savage, hardy and free. - Come, come.
You are a young woman. You are going to bring a new young life into the world.
You are blessed, if only you could see it.
Open the window wide again.
Open it.
I will not give you a death of cold.
I'm not helpless yet. I'll do it myself.
Heathcliff!
Heath...Heathcliff.
Heathcliff.
Come on, she was seen out there, sir.
I think she will have headed up to the crags, sir!
If we waste time going there and you are wrong...
It is where she went as a child. It was a favourite place for...
For both of them.
Cathy!
My love!
Cathy!
My love!
Cathy! Cathy!
- Cathy! - I see no sign of she, sir.
Cathy!
Oh, Cathy.
My love.
Am I come home?
Yes.
Yes, you are home. We are home.
And we will wander these moors for all eternity.
I thought you had forgotten me.
You know that I could as soon forget you
as my own existence.
And what of Edgar and...
There is no Edgar.
There is no Hindley.
There is just you and I.
Just you and I.
Cathy!
She is here.
Damn you. She is here!
The pneumonia has a grip on her lungs.
She has neither the constitution nor, it seems, the will to recover.
Hell, is that all you can say? Is there nothing you can do?
It'll be a miracle if I can keep her alive until she's gone full term.
I believe if the child is not born tonight, neither will survive.
Dear, sweet Edgar.
Why could you not love someone worthy of your affection
and gentleness?
You know our child will be loved and cherished, do you not?
But not too tame.
Our child shall wander the moors and be free
as any child must with your blood running through their veins.
When I was a child,
my father went on a trip.
And he asked me and my sister what presents we would like.
I chose a fiddle.
And my sister, already a good rider,
asked for a new whip.
But when he returned he did not bring us what we had asked for,
he had brought you instead.
Cathy is dying.
And you grew and grew like a big fat cuckoo
and now look at you sitting there as if you are already master of the house.
Your sister is dying.
Cathy is dying.
You do not fool me, Heathcliff.
You wear your finer feelings like you wear those gentleman's clothes...
badly. You are nothing more than a gypsy bastard
and so your love for Cathy can only be a pretend love.
Your grief for her, a pretence.
Don't you say her name.
- Stop! - Don't you say her name!
Don't you say her name!
- No! - Stop!
- You will kill him! - You will hang for it!
I long to die!
I would die a thousand deaths
if I knew she were waiting for me!
I am leaving now.
I think it fair that you let me leave unmolested.
- Be gone! - After all,
it is better to be hated by you than loved by you.
I see that now.
So I think I owe you a queer sort of gratitude
that you spared me your love and its murderous effects.
Be gone! Be gone!
Will you let me see Cathy or must I fight my way in?
She is weak.
- She is dying. - Then you know she would wish to see me.
Obey her dying wishes even if you no longer take heed of mine.
Sleep, my love, sleep. Sleep, my love!
Let me die in your arms.
Don't leave me.
Edgar.
Oh, Edgar! How sweet it feels to see you again.
I beg your forgiveness!
Forgiveness? I have nothing to forgive you.
- Then you are not angry? - I am not angry.
I am sorry to have lost you,
especially as I can never think you will be happy.
I am carrying his child, Edgar!
And I have nowhere and nothing!
Please. How can I make amends?
If you should really wish to oblige me,
then return to the villain you married and persuade him to leave the country.
Do not close your heart to me!
Do not close your heart!
The servants are returning from church. My master will not be far behind.
I cannot go.
I shall not go, I tell you. For heaven's sake! Just go for one hour.
I will come to you when the master leaves the house, please.
I promised her.
This will be the last time.
She begged me to stay!
What in God's name?
Unless you are a fiend, you will take her! You will take her and you will comfort her.
I shall not refuse to go out of doors.
But I will stay in the garden,
and mind you keep to your word, Nelly.
I shall be under the larch trees.
Nelly, send for Dr Kenneth. Now, send for him, woman!
Doctor, thank God.
Please come. Please.
Her breathing is shallow. I fear for our baby.
She's dead.
I didn't have to wait for you to learn that.
Stop snivelling before me.
Damn you all. She wants none of your tears.
Yes, she's dead.
Gone to heaven, I hope.
Oh, did she die like a saint?
You poor wretch.
Your pride cannot blind God.
How did she die?
She lay with a sweet smile on her face and her baby at her breast.
His bastard lived, then.
Cathy's life closed in a gentle dream.
May she wake as kindly in the other world.
May she wake in torment!
I pray one prayer
I repeat it till my tongue stiffens...
Cathy Earnshaw, may you not rest,
not while I'm living.
You said I killed you.
Haunt me, then.
Be with me always.
Take any form. Drive me mad, but don't leave me
in the abyss, where I cannot find you.
I cannot live without my life.
I cannot live without my soul.
Being married will will not be such a bad thing, will it, Catherine?
I'm going to see my father.
This locket was your mother's.
I hope you'll be a dutiful daughter.
I defy you to frighten me!
Have you heard how your wife speaks to me, Linton?
If you cannot take her in hand perhaps I'll have to do so myself.
Linton loves me and for that reason I love him.
Mr Heathcliff, you have nobody to love you
and however miserable you make us,
we shall still have the revenge of thinking that
your cruelty rises from your greater misery!
Nelly! Nelly!
- Is he still alive? - Yes.
Yes, my angel, he is!
Forgive me. Please forgive me.
There is nothing to forgive.
Tell me one thing, Catherine, and tell me the truth.
Do you love Linton?
Will he make you happy?
He will make me very happy, Father.
And Mr Heathcliff has said that we shall live here -
Linton and I together.
And we will fill the house with children and happiness.
Then I can go to her.
I have been very happy with my little Catherine.
Oh, I see. Playing the loyal servants to the last, are we?
Make haste and get my daughter's things together.
And don't oblige me to compel you.
Why not let Catherine continue here?
And send Master Linton to her.
I'm seeking another tenant for the Grange.
And I want my children about me, to be sure.
You are on my property.
Stand to one side, else I'll have the constable on you!
This is Green, my solicitor.
He will give each of you a notice to quit.
Put it down there.
It is cold up here.
Perhaps you should come down and sit by the fire for a few moments,
just while Linton sleeps.
I will stay up here.
I brought you a book.
Nelly said you might like it.
I thought you might be in need of distraction.
Catherine, come and sit by the fire, my love.
Just while Linton sleeps.
We'll listen out for him, won't we, Hareton?
Thank you.
Lapwing. Bonny bird,
it wheels over your head on the moor
I have been to my solicitor.
Linton has bequeathed me all his estate.
When he dies, you will be destitute.
You'll have no need of books!
If I am as poor as you say, then I have every need of books
to help me escape my miserable fate!
What a hideous tyrant.
And you sitting there like a dumb ox while he abuses me!
- What was I supposed to have done? - What was I supposed to have done?
Stand up to the fiend!
How would you like it if I abused your father?
He is not your father. Hindley was your father
and Heathcliff ruined him and drove him to an early grave.
Heathcliff showed me more love than my father.
Yes. So that he could trick you out of your rightful inheritance.
Don't speak of Heathcliff like that!
- I'd rather you would abuse me. - Very well.
I had thought your dumb state was down to your upbringing
but now I see it is the state you prefer,
much like a dog or a cart-horse! And if I ever needed proof,
it is your cowardice in not standing
- to that man! - You're a damned liar!
Why have I made him angry, by taking your part then?
A hundred times?
I shall have nothing to do with you and your mucky pride
and your damned mocking tricks!
I shall go to hell, body and soul,
before I look sideways at you again!
Is that true,
what Hareton said about taking my part?
He has taken beatings for you. That is true.
Why does he insist on defending Heathcliff?
Because he is attached to him by ties
stronger than reason can break
and it is cruel of you to try and loosen them.
Come in, Cathy.
Cathy, do come, please.
Please come in.
Oh, do once more.
Oh, my love.
Oh, my heart's darling,
I ask you once more.
Please end it.
End my agony!
Let me in! Let me in!
- Let me in. - Cathy.
Cathy, do come, my love.
Do come, my love.
- Do come. - Mr Heathcliff.
Mr Heathcliff.
- You must come. - My lovo... I...
You must come.
Mr Heathcliff,
my husband, your son,
he's dead.
- My son? - Linton.
Linton is dead.
Our Father who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
I'm sorry.
And I am sorry for the things I said to you.
I did not mean it.
I was miserable and bitter at everybody
and I would like you to forgive me.
Is Catherine not here?
She is upstairs.
I picked some flowers from over at the Grange.
- Oh, did you? - Seemed a shame to waste them.
They were the last of the summer.
If he finds you in here, he will punish you.
He can't hurt me. I think even he knows that.
I thought we could be friends,
even though you'll be ashamed of me.
I will not be.
I think I would like a friend.
It is one of my mother's exercise books.
How she loved Heathcliff.
What are you two doing in here?
I wanted to feel close to what is left of my family.
I'm the only person to blame. Hareton stayed with me at my insistence.
And who the devil gave you leave to set one foot in here!
And who ordered you to obey her?
You shouldn't grudge me one room when you have taken everything from me!
You insolent slut!
You never had anything!
If you strike me, Hareton will strike you!
If Hareton does not turn you out of this room,
I will strike him back to hell!
Hareton,
take her. Take her and leave me.
All of you, leave me now!
She must learn to avoid putting me in a passion.
You once told me that love would only bring me grief and pain and suffering.
I have seen nothing in my life
to change that opinion otherwise.
You misled me,
not purposely I don't suppose but you were wrong.
If that is true,
then my whole life's endeavours have been wrong too.
Is that what you would have me believe?
I would have you believe whatever brings you peace.
Would that not be a poor conclusion?
An absurd termination to my violent exertions?
I feel for you in such a variety of ways.
In the first place, your startling likeness to Cathy
fearfully connected you with her. But then what is not connected with her to me?
And what does not recall her?
The entire world is a dreadful collection of memoranda
that she did exist and that I have lost her.
You have no...
- feeling of illness, have you? - No.
No, I have not.
I never felt stronger.
I think first you should kiss me for minding so well.
Five kisses if you read it through with no further blunders.
No.
No! No!
