Start with Hitchcock maybe. He’s a classic filmmaker in the suspense film genre. Rebecca, was made in the 40’s and won academy awards.
Most romantic comedies aren’t necessarily so much comedy as they are light romance. They may have numerous elements but it isn’t typically the main point. I love Gene Kelly’s films. Singing in the Rain was the one that started me wanting to dance. Dirty Dancing is my favorite film of all time.
I don’t think I’ve read the complete Wuthering Heights - just excerpts in high school English. I should maybe remedy that.
