Checked out the 90s version and 2011 version.

Are you a fan of either or both? Perhaps neither?

Hey #booksky!

I've realized that May 4th is going to be on a Monday this year! I would love to review a Star Wars book that day. What do you recommend?

Did you know that Patty Duke played a young Catherine in the 1958 teleplay version of "Wuthering Heights?" This would have been four years before her Oscar-winning performance in "The Miracle Worker." #filmsky
