Re: Wuthering Heights.
This is the one movie on the AFI list that I haven't seen yet. But I at least know that I enjoy the Alfred Newman music, so I should find SOMETHING worthwhile. Plus, I confess I'm kind of a sucker for classic Hollywood romantic gush.
Here's a piece of musical trivia. Did anyone here know that Bernard Herrmann, the famed composer of many Hitchcock & Harryhausen film scores (along with Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons and The Devil and Daniel Webster) wrote a full-length opera based on Wuthering Heights? It's quite a wonderful composition.
