Hi all,
I am new to the site but after reading your marvellous replies, some I agree with and some not, I would like to add mine. First and foremost THE best adaptation ever is Hitchcocks' Rebecca (set just a few miles away from me!), next it has to be Coppolla's 'Dracula' with Gary Oldman. V. sexy! THE most sexy Dracula ever (be still my beating heart) and then BBC production of 'Jane Eyre' with Ruth Wilson as Jane and Toby Stephens as the delicious Mr Rochester, by far the best adaptation of the book ever made.
I can't believe someone said they like the Ralph Fiennes version of Wuthering Heights! It is the worst cast film ever! How dare they use a French woman to play Cathy!!! And Ralph is hardly the dark and brooding Byronic hero that Heathcliff is supposed to be! Great soundtrack tho!
Cheers
