The second generation in the book is cut from the movie so the deaths involved there are also cut.

There is child abuse in the original book, but most of it is cut from the film. Heathcliff is kicked out of the house and made a servant as a child.

A main character is an alcoholic and seen in increasing levels of intoxication. This is a major plot point and can't really be avoided in the second half of the movie

The term "g*psy beggar" is repeatedly used for a character. He gets a lot of agression and racist comments. It should also be noted that, while the character is Rromani, he is played by a white actor.

Everybody is miserable and the lovers are dead, though their death is seen as somewhat hopeful.
