Based on the literary classic by Thomas Hardy, FAR FROM THE MADDING
CROWD is the story of independent, beautiful and headstrong Bathsheba
Everdene (Carey Mulligan), who attracts three very different suitors:
Gabriel Oak (Matthias Schoenaerts), a sheep farmer, captivated by her
fetching willfulness; Frank Troy (Tom Sturridge), a handsome and
reckless Sergeant; and William Boldwood (Michael Sheen), a prosperous
and mature bachelor. This timeless story of Bathsheba's choices and
passions explores the nature of relationships and love - as well as the human ability to overcome hardships through resilience and perseverance.
Director: Thomas Vinterberg
Writers: Thomas Hardy (novel), David Nicholls(screenplay)
Stars: Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen
Critics Consensus: Far from the Madding Crowd invites tough comparisons to Thomas Hardy's classic novel -- and its previous adaptation -- but stands on its own thanks to strong direction and a talented cast.
