Wuthering Heights (2009)

This adaptation of Emily Bronte's classic novel brings the brooding romance of the Yorkshire moors to screen. It traces the doomed passion between Heathcliff and Catherine across generations. Heartbreak and obsession run through every chapter of their story. Charlotte Riley headlines as Catherine, bringing raw intensity to the tortured love story. Erika Christensen also appears in the cast, lending her name to this literary drama. Between them, the pair account for 2 scenes worth seeking out on the site. Riley's turn includes a genuinely exposed bit of skin. It strips away the corsets and propriety of the period setting. Christensen's clip offers a rarer, more revealing glimpse. It's a surprise from an actress usually cast in buttoned-up roles. It's a small but worthwhile pairing for fans chasing period drama with an unexpected edge.
