Guess who's moved from the cobbles to the moors in Wuthering Heights?

I can't picture the two of them as the romantic Cathy and Heathcliff. He would probably suit the role but she's a bit long in the tooth though i'm sure she'll do a good job. She'll look like his mum!
ReplyDeleteIf ever a couple need their heads banging together, it's Cathy and Heathcliff. Much prefer the Monty Python semaphore version!
ReplyDeleteWhat??? Totally inappropriate casting. Much though I love Gaynor, she is too old for Catherine Earnshaw and with all due respect to Rupert Hill, he is NOT a Heathcliff. And Edgar, perhaps, but not a Heathcliff. He's physically wrong for the part. Hope they prove me wrong though.
ReplyDeleteI disagree with Cobblestone & Tvor. Gaynor is such a good actress that you'd never believe she was older than Rupert, it totally drags you in. Also, Rupert is amazing as Heathcliff. A million miles away from when I saw him earlier this year in When Harry Met Sally. Excellent in both, he can clearly play a variety of roles realistically and with real passion. Well done to all involved with this production
