Not quite thoroughly a modern woman, Bath is conflicted by her ever shifting feelings. No one in Madding Crowd is truly evil or has harmful intentions. Who gets her heart at the end? Trusty servant/long time friend whom she can always depend on? A dreamboat who stirs fire in her? A wealthy, kindly benefactor who'd tolerate her equivocation til kingdom come? #JulieChristie is very lovely indeed. #johnschlesinger #alanbates #peterfinch #terencestamp #thomashardy #adaptation #farfrommaddingcrowd
