      <image:caption>Step 1: Do not engage in whitewashing and deliberate miscast of the actors to the extent that one of the most complex and essential themes of the novel - race and racial perception within highly conservative 19th century milleu - is completely erased, reducing Cathy’s and Heathcliff’s relationship to a spicy, fanfictionised, vulgarly carnal affair. Yes, in the film, Heathcliff is portrayed as a class outsider, with Cathy claiming that marrying him would socially “degrade” her. And yet, when Heathcliff comes back rich, she doesn’t go back to him. In one of the scenes her father, Mr Earnshaw, tells Heathcliff that despite his enviable climb to the top of the class system, he is not enough for Cathy. But the reason is never given. We genuinely don’t know why she wouldn’t go back to him. Because of her marriage? She is not morally ethical enough, with the constant, illicit meet-ups for a “quicky” with Heathcliff serving as an undeniable proof of that. Brontë’s writing and plot-constructing skills being slightly better than Fennel’s actually gives the readers an answer: it is Heathcliff’s ethnical background, his racial identity, patronised and prejudicially perceived as inferior by the Victorian society, that obtrudes their love. An inherent and inescapably important aspect to the character. What about the film? It claims that their affair is impossible. But why? And don’t say morals. They both severely lack that. *** So, there is another thing Fennel kindly teaches us to be cautious of: plot-holes, for the the lack of sufficient biographical factors will make the characters’ relationship look wannabe-tragic-but-teenage-like-ludicrous, and inevitably present itself as a one-dimensional loop of woe, vexatious and unbearable to consume without a good laugh, instead of a complicated narrative about two people, born and raised in drastically opposing societal polars, their love laying (an actually devastating) victim to the magisterially capitalistic and imperiously racist society.</image:caption>
