The 1966 black-and-white film, directed by the renowned director Metin Erksan, carries the story to a farm on the hills of Bosphorus, Istanbul. Although Erksan emphasizes the issue of class in the film, he is particularly interested in recreating the novel's atmosphere in his own cinematic language. A director very much drawn to dark, destructive love stories throughout his career, Erksan manages to capture 'the spirit' of the novel with the help of his two lead actors. Immortal Love is an example of the avant-garde, at the crossroads of the national and the universal. It is an affirmation of the novel's seemingly endless appeal and inspiration.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEmily BronteLiterary AdaptationMetin ErksanTurkish CinemaWuthering Heights AdaptationsArticle2-s2.0-8506731022510.1080/14748932.2019.16063932913Q428444N/AWOS:000472222200004
