Thomas Hardy must have found love for once when he wrote this lol. Great atmosphere! Only the British do period movies the best!
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.
Thank you for this gem! I love Thomas Hardy but despite owning most of his novels, I have never read this one.
It's taken me away from the troubles we now face in a modern world, full of greed, uncertainty and evil, though those times existed in Hardy's time too.
I guess the difference is, we have progressed beyond our wildest imagination, to where, at the flick of a switch, we can be eradicated.
For tonight at least, I have some escape and hope.
Thank you for this film.
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...
Loved it! Sweet story, no sex, language or violence. Just a sweet love story ❤️
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.
Reminds me of the two years of childhood life living in an area surrounded by farms and villages, hills and rivers, the very beautiful nature scenes in my memory are just like a fairy tale world, full of cute and interesting farm animals, beautiful trees, fragrant flowers, and plenty of juicy fruits...
The only happy book Hardy wrote, and even then the result could have gone either way! A very nice story and lovely film.
Seriously? You cried? Geez...
🙄
@@yessumyessum6624 Seriously, you didn't ? Geez.
I watched this movie 10 years ago on Netflix and I am watching it again. It is such a delightful, charming movie full of subtle comedy throughout.
Love this type of classic romantic romance movie.
Enjoy this delightful film; it is, believe me, the ONLY time you will see a story by Thomas Hardy described as a "feel-good flick!"
Never was truer word spoken - this was my 'O' Level text and Jude The Obscure was my 'A' Level text!!
Yes, a happy ending. Hardy a brilliant writer but so sad.

Wish he wrote more of this sjanger!
Very engaging I must admit. The 45 minute mark where the bass player accidentally strikes his bow..and they all hastily join in. A real lol moment! Money can't buy love. It can't buy happiness either.
You can sure have a great time for awhile.
Because love is priceless and happiness is free....
Much better than I expected! A small nitpick though: the postmark on the letter appears to be 1841. But in church they sing the hymn 'Abide with Me' which was not written until 1847. The constant good summer weather and slightly continental looking village made me think at first it must have been filmed in Hungary or Czech Republic as is often the case, so it was quite a surprise to see it was filmed in Jersey.
I really enjoyed this movie... A time when life was simpler and more connected to nature. A very beautiful connection made with the greenwood tree , the seasons..
Also we cannot judge the choice Fancy Day made.. every one is different. She had her own perspective of looking at life. Everyone has different priorities.
Thank you for uploading this movie❤
I love the carol singing. Just over a week till Christmas and getting the festive feels ❤
Thomas Hardy is one of my favourite authors, love this.
I adore Thomas Hardy… he is definitely one hell of a storyteller. And a romantic soul…
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.
Good film showing why education is so important. It makes us free by doing our own choices not for convinience but knowing why we do them. Thanks very much
Being a beautiful woman was not easy... Guys motivated by beauty and hormones all thinking its love. And she didn't ask to be pursued. Oh, the drama of it all. Thanks, nice film. ❤
A really enjoyable film, a little different to the book. Thomas Hardy tends to be realistic in relationships revealing flaws and vulnerabilities. He also has a great sense of humour, so I highly recommend the book where you can have some laughs.
Being realistic makes better lit. This is romantic fantasy.
@@jeanisdancing quite true - I enjoyed both.
I have the book but never read it.
I shall make it my endeavour to seek it out, from which ever box it is stored and make it my bedtime reading.
Thanks for that!
Book writers and movie makers often (always?) have different ideas on which script storylines will please their audiences.
🙄🫤
You honestly think he has "a great sense of humor "!?!
Convince me.
Such a wonderful Movie! The essence of it was great! "Faith, hope and love; but the greatest of this is Love!" 💕
This was a very sweet and morally clean movie. Thank you for making it available.
Love cannot be bought, it has to come from the heart. Tomas Hardly is one of my favourite authors. He cared about the commoners and the plight of women who were under pressure in Victorian society.
This movie was inspired by one thing: to make ua feel good. And by all means, Thank you!!! Mission accomplished 🙏. Never underestimate the power of positivity, no matter where it comes from ❤
I wanted the harmonium and the band/choir to play together in the church at the end.
Good old Tony Haygarth,RIP. He was as much fun in life too...One of Hardy's few cheerfull epics!
God bless his mortal soul 😭
The only one
I like the character the Pastor plays... he gets a surprise at the end!
Beautiful singing at the conclusion...
I was delighted to have watched this beautiful film with a gorgeous setting. Thank you 😊
I remember the first Thomas Hardy film I watched was Far From the Madding Crowd. Shocking viewing for someone used to watching Emma and Pride and Prejudice!
Hardy rapidly became my favourite
A wonderful simple time when life was so much slower and community was everything.
And disease was rife and women died from childbirth.
Good movie no one got killed etc just good
Beautiful movie,story line,my respects for Mr Hardy
Absolutely LOVED everything about this movie... the story, the setting, the acting, the music... and especially THE ENDING (sigh!) Thank you very much... will definitely view again!
Couldn't agree more! Such a great movie indeed! Thank you!
Crazy about British period dramas. Thank you!
@Feel Good Flicks
I`ve watched this wonderful movie many times. It is one of those that I like to watch when I`m in a certain indescribable mood.
I love everything about this film. The script, the photography, the delightful actors, and of course, James Murray, who is a dish... When I watched it for the first time, I literally fell in love with him :)))
I am very thankful to you for uploading this gem :)
Oh James Murray is a proper eye-candy indeed)))
Ooooh he is isn’t he! Lucky Sarah Parish…
May I suggest you only even remember having a slight fleeting celebrity crush on actor x... You had no motive for murdering any celebs.... Whatsoever and have never even got the point of stalking.. Why would they even bother? Can't. See the point
And the music is perfect!
Yes !!
Simply beautiful!! Keely Haley’s is wonderful in this!!
A beautiful film, I enjoyed it immensely ❤️
me too
What a delight!!! A beautiful story and very solid performances.❤
I've had this DVD for years, and it is truly one of Britain's best.
Really amazing
Do you have collection ❤
I really enjoyed this movie - true love finds a way as always is a beautiful story.
I love this adaptation of Thomas Hardy's book and watch it whenever I need some escapism. Great actors too. Thank you.
*Beautiful movie with great acting, beautiful music and a terrific plot. Thank you very*
*much. My favorite genre! Perfect...*
I luv the British period movies ❤️
Love this movie so much. It has become my new favorite. Love the relationship between them.
This was great!
Perfect for being laid up on the couch!
Very well done!! Thank you to any, and all that acted in this and/ or helped bring this to us!! ❤
Wonderful!...I love period movies!
What a delight! Thank you for making this sweet movie available to us to enjoy,
A wonderful, interesting movie. A work of art!
A beautiful story of love.
Such a welcome love story, Fancy & Dickie. It feels like decades since a true love bond in real life happened. But it does come along ...
Low cut off the shoulder gowns were only worn by ladies at evening gatherings, never in daylight.
Noticed!
Unless you're Meghan Meghan Markle desperately determined to undermine all royal protocal.
@@Odo55 😅
@@Odo55 what makes them royal? Gold in their blood?
Except maybe in Hawaii...
A beautiful movie, loved every moment of it.
Such a beautiful and delightful movie. Really loved it.
What a beautiful movie. I cried. Thank you!!!
I feel good!!!!
What a beautiful love story. She made the right choice.thank you for this one. 🥰💖
At 1:30.00 it looks like a lovely painting with the light just so. Such a nice film.
Sweet movie, and loved the musical score! There is a magnificent tree near where I live that looks almost identical to the tree in this movie
I have watched this twice and still love it from beginning to end.
Excellent! Definitely a "feel good" movie
Such a wonderful movie ❤ Thank you so much!!
What a wonderful film! Thank you for uploading it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Such a beautiful movie ❤
Such a masterpiece..loved it ... especially James Murray ❤
Fun and entertaining. I would have to read Thomas Hardy's original to understand if this movie strayed far, far from it. Much fun, almost no realism. But, I'm happy I watched it.
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.
Loved this romantic film.
True love is such a beautiful thing!💞🕊️
Great film and cast, thank you more like this please. ❤
Lovely! 🥰 thank you!
Love this movie. More please 😊
Thanks so much for posting
What a beautiful movie… thank you for sharing
Thank you for this delightful movie!
Thanks for showing this
Thank you for the lovely feel good movie!
Ahhhh beautiful Dorset❤🔥. It's good to have this upload clear of foreign subtitles which cover the screen, thank you muchly.
The last picture in the film illustrates this:
The point in Yalbury wood which abutted on the end of Geoffrey Day’s premises was closed by an ancient tree, horizontally of enormous extent though having no great pretension in height.
Beautiful piece of work
Such Love!
I've heard that some believe in, that because You're the Son of Elohim,
You suffered less,
during Your distress.
But then, they completely forget,
that You're the Son of man, yet;
Which learned obedience through all Your sufferings,
but always without any sins!
Thank You, Lord, that during Your life down here, You stood against all kind of temptation,
to prepare a way for my salvation!
I'm so grateful for those precious Words in the garden of Gethsemane,
in the middle of Your agony ;
"Abba Father....not as I will, but as You will!"
Nobody took Your life, Lord,
but You gave it freely,
went through all the pain, scorn and slaughter,
because You love us dearly!
How can I ever comprehend such Love, which eternal life did bestow?!
All I can do, is believe and receive,
forever praise Your Name ; which
salvation for me became!
What drugs are you on?
Hi
SOOOOOO wonderful, to read the outpouring of your heart in such words that show the unspeakable agony our Lord and Saviour endured to accomplish our salvation!
Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over the world from Jerusalem!
A lovely story, thank you for sharing.

Love your commentary❤❤❤
Delightful, thank you 😊
His playing of the Ukulele, bagpipes & harmonica during Church High Mass has been an English tradition for centuries. It's sacrilegious to abandon these old Faith Traditions like that. At 1:00:20 she's destined for a house full of blokes congratulating her harmonium playing and she'll have to spend hours feeding them all & making tea now.
❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌
Now this is what the world is missing
TRUE LOVE
I read The Woodlanders and saw the movie based on the story Far from The Maddening Crowd. Excellent story. Thank you for posting this movie. I loved it.
Have this on DVD one of my favourites🌸💕
Beautiful scenery of the country life and they acted well truly like those days
It's still like this in deepest rural Dorset!
Enchanting, Thankyou 😊
Wow! Loved it!!
