Far From The Madding Crowd Trailer – Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts & Tom Sturridge star

February 18, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

far-from-the-madding-crowd-slideFar From The Madding Crowd may be one of Thomas Hardy’s classics, but due to having to study it at school, I have a rather great dislike for it. However even so, the new film version Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen and Tom Sturridge doesn’t look too bad.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘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 wilfulness; 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.’

The film is due out in the UK on May 1st, so should provide a bit of respite from the summer blockbuster overload. [Read more…]

Far From The Madding Crowd Teaser Trailer – Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts and Tom Sturridge take on Thomas Hardy

November 24, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

far-from-the-madding-crowd-poster1Having been forced to study it at school, I have an irrational hatred of Far From The Madding Crowd, but hopefully this new film version won’t be as tedious as the book (the 1967 movie with Julie Christie and Terence Stamp wasn’t bad, so there is hope).

This new take from director Thomas Vinterberg stars Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen and Tom Sturridge, and now the first teaser trailer and poster have arrived.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘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 wilfulness; 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.’

It’ll be out in cinemas next Spring. [Read more…]

First Pics Of Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenarts & Tom Sturridge In Far From The Madding Crowd

November 1, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

far-from-the-madding-crowd-pic3A new film version of Thomas Hardy’s classic Far From The Madding Crowd has recently been shooting, and now the first images have arrived, showing off Carey Mulligan,  Matthias Schoenarts and Tom Sturridge.

David Nicholls wrote the screenplay which is about headstrong farmer’s daughter Bathsheba Everdene (Carey Mulligan), and her tumultuous love life, who must choose between three very different suitors, which involves a shepherd (Matthias Schoenarts) she initially dismisses, a dashing but duplicitous soldier (Tom Sturridge), and a farm owner.

Thomas Vinterberg directs, with the movie expected in cinemas next year.

Tom Sturridge Joins Carey Mulligan In Far From The Madding Crowd

July 20, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tom-sturridgeFesten director Thomas Vinterberg has been planning a new version of Far From The Madding Crowd for quite a while now. He’s already lined up Carey Mulligan and Matthias Schoenaerts to star, and now Deadline reports they’ve been joined by Tom Sturridge (On the Road, The Boat that Rocked), who’s currently hot after a Tony-nominated run on Broadway in Orphans.

David Nicholls is writing the screenplay which is about headstrong farmer’s daughter Bathsheba Everdene (Mulligan), and her tumultuous love life, who must choose between three very different suitors, which involves a shepherd she initially dismisses, a dashing but duplicitous soldier, and a farm owner.

Athough Deadline say exactly which of those suitors Sturridge will play, we’re betting he’ll be the seemingly exciting Sergeant Frank Troy, who isn’t all he promises to be.
