    • Trivia
      Carey Mulligan suggested Matthias Schoenaerts for the role of Gabriel Oak after having seen him in Rust and Bone (2012). Mulligan told Total Film, "The minute I saw Rust and Bone I called [director] Thomas Vinterberg and I was like, 'That's who I want!'. He's brilliant - one of those effortlessly manly actors".
    • Goofs
      In the final scene when Gabriel leaves the farm he is wearing white trousers and white shirt with a dark waistcoat but shortly later when B catches up with him he is dressed in completely different clothes.
    • Quotes

      Bathsheba Everdene: It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in a language chiefly made by men to express theirs.

    Far and away the best film i've seen in a while
    I've never read the novel on which this is based but decided to give the film a try seeing as it featured the always very watchable Carey Mulligan and a screenplay by David Nicholls (One Day).

    It may not please everyone but I think the director has managed to create a strong love story that allows the central character to develop throughout the two hour run. Mulligan captures every aspect of the character well and despite her making lots of bad choices we still stick by her.

    Michael Sheen does well in his role and there are plenty of twists that kept me on the edge of my seat.

    In this age of franchises and big blockbuster superhero nonsense it is refreshing that this film manages to tell a good story with a wonderful cast and hopefully will be enjoyed by many.
