It's perfect. 111 00:06:32,851 --> 00:06:35,562 Okay, someone explain to me the state of Catherine's mind... 112 00:06:35,771 --> 00:06:37,981 ...as she drove Heathcliff away. 113 00:06:38,190 --> 00:06:40,901 It was her tragic and dysfunctional way... 114 00:06:40,943 --> 00:06:42,903 ...of letting him know she loved him. 115 00:06:42,945 --> 00:06:46,698 Yes, that's the obvious interpretation of the moment. 116 00:06:46,949 --> 00:06:49,451 However, I think it goes deeper than that. 117 00:06:49,618 --> 00:06:53,914 For some reason, this story is regarded as some great love story. 118 00:06:54,039 --> 00:06:58,877 But the reality is that Heathcliff and Catherine never belonged together. 119 00:06:58,919 --> 00:07:02,464 They shouldn't have been together. Catherine was essentially a mess. 120 00:07:02,673 --> 00:07:05,008 Heathcliff was basically a decent guy... 121 00:07:05,217 --> 00:07:06,927 ...who had a lot to learn about life... 122 00:07:07,052 --> 00:07:09,930 ...and he was inherently better-off without some whimpering... 123 00:07:10,139 --> 00:07:12,975 ...mentally unstable wet rag following him around. 124 00:07:13,183 --> 00:07:16,228 The whole thing was wrong.

The script's done... 128 00:07:27,948 --> 00:07:30,576 ...the movie's boarded, and we worked on it this summer. 129 00:07:30,909 --> 00:07:33,704 Let's move on to story.
