" Far from the Madding Crowd "
The title is taken from the wonderful Thomas Hardy [1840-1928] novel which was set in Dorset, where Hardy came from. It was made into a very successful film but my favourite was the 1967 version with Julie Christie and Alan Bates. Is it any wonder that Hardy was inspired to write such amazing classics, being surrounded by the stunning Dorset countryside.
Here is a link to some information about him which is very interesting.

"It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in language which is chiefly made by men to express theirs" [Thomas Hardy.]
[Obviously written long before "Mills and Boon!"]
Heres a version of the complete film which is fairly good.
