Talking Movies: Far From the Madding Crowd

A period romance is arriving on the big screen with a fresh adaptation of the British literary classic Far From the Madding Crowd.

It stars Carey Mulligan as the central figure, Bathsheba Everdene, an independent woman who wins the affections of three men.

As blockbuster season gets underway, the picture is seen as alternative fare to summer blockbusters, and could do well at the box office. Talking Movies' Tom Brook reports.
