pastoral love song

The tumbling wheat waves on the land, the rustic farmhouses between the hills, the lambs in the hillside fields, the picturesque scenery of the English countryside, including the soundtrack that complements classical and folk songs, is a highlight of the film. Narratively speaking, as a film adaptation of a famous novel, it is really good: in the process of meeting the heroine and the three male protagonists, the image of the heroine as an independent woman has become more and more plump. Of course, such a simple love story may have already fallen into the rut, but when placed in the background of idyllic pastoral and the blend of classic and modern Victorian style, it will appear fresh and elegant, as if diffused with the fragrance of newly harvested wheat. As for the image of independent women, it does add a bit of romance to the film. The manor, the farmland, the pasture, the sunset, and the woman driving the horse galloping past, isn't the sense of the picture strong enough?

Far from the Madding Crowd quotes

  • Sergeant Troy: This woman, dead as she is, is more to me than you ever were, or are, or can be. You are nothing to me now. Nothing.

  • [first lines]

    Bathsheba Everdene: [narrating] "Bathsheba Everdene." "Bathsheba." The name has always sounded strange to me. I don't like to hear it said out loud. My parents died when I was very young, so there's no one to ask where it came from. I've grown accustomed to being on my own. Some say even too accustomed. Too independent.
