Wuthering Heights is a 1920 British silent drama film directed by A. V. Bramble and starring Milton Rosmer, Colette Brettel and Warwick Ward. It is the first film adaptation made of the 1847 novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, and was primarily filmed in and around her home village of Haworth.[1] It is not known whether the film currently survives,[2] and it is considered to be a lost film.
In 2014, a film script used by director A.V. Bramble consisting of 22 pages of production notes alongside stills from the set of the cast and crew were found [3] and displayed to the public at the Bronte Parsonage Museum.[4]
