Far From The Madding Crowd - 2015 - What the actual f***

By paperbackmarket2003

Okay but seriously, what the hell was this movie? I did genuinely love the scenery, the outfits, and the whole vibe—like it actually felt right for a period drama and the big singing moments were on point. But then… what was up with the woman and the guys she chose? Also, spoilers ahead, I guess. I felt really bad for the neighbor guy. I honestly couldn’t figure out what he even saw in her. And the more he tried to convince her to marry him, the worse everything got. By the time he was basically begging her to marry him, even with all that pity, I was like nah—bro should’ve tried harder, like for real. And I have no idea how she ended up marrying that soldier guy. He was such a dumbass. Plus I didn’t buy the “love” for the farm hand at all. They just seemed like decent friends to me—there wasn’t any real romance happening in my eyes. I also hated that she basically shut down his whole plan to go to the US. And the rich guy who shot her first husband—he was right to do it, but it still made me feel awful for him too, since he got stuck with that whole mess. The ending was just… the worst. I’m sitting there thinking, what the actual f*** was this movie?
