Hello everyone your welcome to my blog ♥️
The movie Wuthering heights, featuring Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, talks about how complicated love can be sometimes. It tells the story of two lovers, who deeply loved each other, and were later affected by social class, personal choices, lack of communication, pride and revenge.
The movie centers on , Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, who both started off as friends when they were both young. As they grew, they became inseparable and loved each other deeply despite their differences in backgrounds and social class. Catherine had expectations, she wanted a more comfortable life and social acceptance and this, would later create a barrier between her and her lover.
Heathcliff on the other hand, started off as a vulnerable young man who even though he knew he had nothing, no class, no social status, nothing at all, he still loved Catherine. She was his safe space, she made him feel like he wasn't alone, she gave him a sense of belonging .Even when Catherine chose social status over him, though he felt deeply betrayed, abandoned, and hurt, he was still obsessed with her and, this obsession later turned into resentment.
After Catherine choose Edgar over Heathcliff, she planted a seed of hatred in his heart. He made it his life's mission to ruin her life and make her feel the pain he felt. He worked really hard, elevated his social status and later became an important person in the society and when he returned, he was no longer the vulnerable, poor helpless orphan they once knew. He changed to a completely different person.
Catherine later learnt the hardest lesson of her life. Her actions portrayed that a person might have it all but still be unhappy deep down and sometimes before we realise the extent of our mistakes it becomes too late. It's better to be happy and have little than to have every material thing and still feel lonely. Love is a beautiful thing and should always come first before everything else.
Another important thing to be learnt in the movie is, communication matters in every relationship. If they had communicated about how they truly felt about each other and how to make their relationship work out regardless of circumstances, they would have understood each other better. Catherine wouldn't have been so eager to marry into a family with high social status because she felt like Heathcliff would remain a poor servant boy forever.
Their inability to communicate at the beginning of the movie, later grew into resentment that ended badly for both of them. In the end, the pride, hatred and the revenge wasn't worth it. This shows that love isn't the only thing that matters in a relationship, in order to build a healthy relationship, there must be ingredients like, understanding, strong communication, trust, respect, honesty and a lot more.
Wuthering Heights might be full of ups and downs, pride, revenge, unresolved pain that later ended up in bitter lessons, but it is a very realistic movie. It explores the darker side of relationships. People only talk about the lovey-dovey side of love, without touching other important things.
Love isn't always easy, you might love each other but still not end up together due to one thing or the other. Sometimes, you feel overwhelmed, sometimes you make hard decisions regardless of how bad it hurts, sometimes love isn't enough. So, Wuthering Heights touched other aspects of love and from the lessons, you learn things to avoid and things to build in a relationship.
