I thought Heathcliff was rather creepy near the ending of Wuthering Heights. The way he flung himself at Catherine's grave, went crazy over her and opened up her grave was rather ... dark and creepy. Perhaps he reacted that way towards the end because he finally realized how his actions towards everyone was. It seems that his actions are rather an impulse rather than to think about how the situation is at the moment and how to solve it. When something does not go his way, he reacts in a violent way towards everyone who comes into his path.
Another thing was the music video by Kate Bush. I understand that it was wierd and crazy & etc. but I enjoyed the song (without the video). Although I just wanted to comment that she acted that way in the video because she may have been portraying the characters in the novel. I mean the characters in the novel were uber crazy and just everywhere unlike the characters in Pride & Prejudice or the ones in Their Eyes Were Watching God. Bronte's characters are in a different time setting and period, therefore their actions and personalities will be different apart from everyone else's set of what a character holds and portrays. I found the music video to be interesting and it shows a part of every character in her odd performance. Like how she was in a trance walking foward with her arms out, that's like Heathcliffe at the end of the novel; how he went around thinking he saw Catherine or spoke to her.
But I love the book we are reading at the moment :) The movie is great also!! ♥Adieu.
