Title: Somewhere along the way...,
Review: between making this movie 10+ years ago and getting cast as the co-lead in HBO's current series "Rome," Ray Stevenson (Clym Yeobirght) learned to act. But this, as Titus Pullo would say, is cac...It's not all Stevenson's fault. Catherine Z-J, as Eustacia Vye, is dreadful as well, as is most of the dialogue. The film can't even make the Wessex landscape look pretty.For a really great adaptation of a Hardy novel, see Far from the Madding Crowd with Nathaniel Parker and Paloma Baeza. Or - better yet - just read the books.
