Script for an ultimately unproduced adaptation of Wuthering Heights by director Lindsay Anderson, writer David Storey and actor Richard Harris. Original purple script binder, with holograph title “Across The Moors” partially concealed by a torn paper label.
A very good example.
In David Storey’s adaptation the doomed romance at the centre of the story ends in a rather dramatic fashion with Heathcliff stealing Cathy’s body from her coffin and taking her to Wuthering Heights. He is followed by an angry mob that sets fire to the house, Heathcliff dying in a raging inferno with Cathy in his arms.
