Overview
A young newspaper writer returns to her hometown in the English countryside, where her childhood home is being prepped for sale.
As so many of the reviews have stated, the only way that you would know that this was a retelling of Far From the Madding Crowd is because they reminded you a couple of times during the film. On a whole the movie is ok. At times Gemma Arterton’s mugging for the camera was a little thick (yes, I realize that is part of the character).
