Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Left me detached compared to '67 Christie/Stamp/Finch/Bates film. I gave that 8 stars. A scene that seemed to capture the times so beautifully in that version was the meal Bethsheba shares with her workers. There, she sat inside while her staff sat outside like they were at a picnic! In this version it all takes place very quietly in the dark with little obvious joy. Anyhow, worth seeing but watch the Schlesinger film for a better adaptation.

Watching this movie, I remember "What the wind took", the problem is that that same makes this worse. It is a feminist film, which at the same time goes against itself. For my taste casting is very bad. Neither is she the woman by all men would move heaven and earth, nor are they the men by which they would do it.It is too long and at no time has you tied. It's a love story, the rest is the least and you do not get to touch the sentimental side. You're not expecting me to choose any.The photograph also brings nothing. No help is a photograph without more.The address, since it does not get to hook you up, nor to catch you is not good. He does not know how to take the movie. He does not even have the camera. Neither did the casting wellI try to be a love movie. I am trying

What a simplistic plot!!! like a children's story all her mistakes are resolved for her, and get out of her way. She married the wrong guy? Oh no problem, the other guy who she likes least will kill him for her, so she can marry the guy she likes best, who by the way was ignored so far, and stupidly just remained by her side! Oh and since I have to write 10 lines, I will add more of her charms! She behaves selfishly, does what she says she doesn't want to do, and never seems to take responsibility for her actions. Somehow, she is such a sweet and lovely woman that she can do whatever she likes, and people will still love her. And the point of the movie is unfortunately this, that after she makes mistakes, the right choice is always available for her to come back to.

It is an adaptation of the novel of Thomas Hardy written in 1874. The film was released on 2015 and is the fourth adaptation of the book. The plot is set in the Victorian Britain. The main character is Bathsheba Everdene which at the beginning of the story is working at is aunt's farm. And then one day a man, his neighbor Gabriel Oak falls in love with her and proposes, but she refuses because she thinks that is too independent for marriage. Then one day Mr Oak losses everything and gets away from the town. And soon she receives letter from his uncle who gives to her his farm. So she leaves the town and moves to his uncle's farm which is now hers. The film shows her intentions to be a good farmer and an independent woman. But when she arrives to the farm, Mr Oak appears and became the new sheepherder. And he is not the only men tan appears in his life, other two men, one is neighbor William Boldwood which is rich, and another is the Sergeant Frank Troy.
