Victorian Romance Unveiled: Under the Greenwood Tree | Feel Good Flicks 

No SEX!!! And there is a vicar involved? Not possible

⁠@@rojewolf1 I was referring to the fact that we don’t have to see people having sex - we may know it’s happening, but it’s not necessary to show everything to have a great movie. There are many modern movies I cannot watch because of the nudity, sex, language, and gory violence. It’s nice to see a good story can be told with that all that.

I appreciate not having those evils too, and love stuff is good. Thanks

What is the name of the movie that had Greensleeves song it? The Woman marries one of her farm hands.

Far from the Madding Crowd? Just a guess!

Thank you very much!

Your comment made me decide to watch. I love Thomas Hardy's books

True, true, true .

Kim you are so totally correct on that. I love my historical movies and shows😊

Because we still live them.

Seriously? You cried? Geez... 🙄

@@yessumyessum6624 Seriously, you didn't ? Geez.

Traduci in italiano

"far from the madding crowd" has a happy ending too - after a lot of suffering

You can sure have a great time for awhile.

Because love is priceless and happiness is free....

Couldn't agree more! Such a great movie indeed! Thank you!

ISN’T THIS THE CUTEST, WARM AND FIZZY MOVIE - I MUST READ SOME OF THOMAS HARDY’S NOVELS - A BIT DICKENSIAN - “MEN OF THE CLOTH” WERE QUITE AUSTERE BACK IN THOSE DAYS - WHERE I WORSHIP WE ARE ALL ON FIRST NAME BASIS - AND I LOVE THAT!!!!!

This is his only romantic work; he's very gritty and a bit shocking at times. He's not Dickensian 👍

@@thehangingparsiple5692 I agree, having read a few of his books, over and over. I wait a few years, then read again and although I know the endings are bad, I cannot quite remember why or how and always hope for the good but alas, they never are.

vanessahudson9788 I completely agree with you. I escaped for a time with this myself.

Vanessa, I have been a student of Bible Prophecy for 49 years. ( I am from a mainline Christian church. ) I totally understand your thoughts and feelings. May I tell you that although we are all stressed to the max, IF you are a Christian, you might consider jumping onboard to learn where we are on God’s Time Clock. By doing this you will become aware of how very, very, very close we are to our departure. This fact will help relieve a portion of your stress, Vanessa, and will also instill in you an excitement beyond belief. When I began my journey 49 years ago, it put an excitement within me, but through the years, as I have marked off one prophecy after another being fulfilled, and how things have completely revved up, I am holding my breath with anticipation. It ALL centers around God’s country. So, what I do is keep one eye peeled toward the sky and the other eye watching Damascus, because the ruination of Damascus is our cue that OUR time has come ! God bless you, and I pray you will catch this excitement, so your stress will lessen.❤️

Was the first one I read, made me an addict, for all his others, and authors of that period, from J Austen through D H Lawrence...

God bless his mortal soul 😭

The only one

Yes. She's also on Upstairs Downstairs.

I loved The Durells of Corfu too!!!!❤

me too

Really amazing

Do you have collection ❤

Noticed!

Unless you're Meghan Meghan Markle desperately determined to undermine all royal protocal.

@@Odo55 what makes them royal? Gold in their blood?

Except maybe in Hawaii...

The book is very different and MUCH more fun and MUCH more realistic.

@@yessanknow302 Thank you so much for your response. This movie did not reminded me of my reading of Thomas Hardy's novels. I can't wait to read the real Under The Greenwood Tree now. Thomas Hardy was a brilliant author, not at all frivolous. Thanks again for your input, much appreciated.

@@susanelainesanner Thank you too. I only read the novel last week and assumed the film would be a faithful depiction of Hardy's story, but it isn't. In fact, the film is a travesty. They changed every element of plot, characterisation, dialogue etc.that works brilliantly in the novel, and turned them into something much less rewarding.

Glad you enjoyed it!

It's still like this in deepest rural Dorset!

Me too! In particular the last song 🎶.

I would love it too I think it will be nobody alone any more tht would be wonderfil

I love period dramas and think the same. So simple and romantic. No crazy technical distraction.

mmm... but perhaps we ARE romanticizing😱😊

Mine too! Glad you enjoyed it!

So sorry - Far From the Madding Crowd. So easy to think of maddening crowds these days!

@@farmergiles1065 That was a very kind correction.

Excellent film ... ''Unsuitable men with familiar smiles'' Never fails as a theme.

Julie Christie.

Do you have the wrong movie? It doesnt look like he's in this one

for o-level?

@@MsVanorak for Junior Certificate.

Jane Johnstone And you could die from a sore throat?

Ahh...a true romanticist at heart! Have a nice cuppa while you enjoy Mr Hardy's good work!

I know what you mean about the 'memories'.

You are living in right era. You live to see this😊.I That time wasn't good for women. Unfortunately. we romanticise it
