What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on Thomas Hardy's novel "Far from the Madding Crowd" (1874).
  • During the filming of a scene where Carey Mulligan rides a horse, the actress fell and landed directly on her head. Ten minutes later, while filming a different scene, she fell onto her knees. Matthias Schoenaerts initially thought she was simply acting, but then Mulligan collapsed face down. According to Mulligan, she suffered a concussion that plagued her for about six weeks, and because of it, she can't even remember some moments of filming.
  • Carey Mulligan suggested Matthias Schoenaerts for the role of Gabriel Oak after seeing him in "Rust and Bone" (2012).
  • The filmmakers reached an agreement with the army to cease fire in the training area of Lulworth Cove (United Kingdom) during filming.
  • The film and the novel it is based on took their title from Thomas Gray’s poem “Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard.”
  • Approximately two-thirds of the film was shot outdoors.
  • The film is based on Thomas Hardy's novel 'Far from the Madding Crowd' (1874).
  • Carey Mulligan suggested Matthias Schoenaerts for the role of Gabriel Oak after seeing him in 'Rust and Bone' (2012).
  • The song sung by Carey Mulligan and Michael Sheen is 'Let No Man Steal Your Thyme,' a traditional British and Irish folk ballad.
  • Jessica Barden, who plays Liddy in this film, previously played Jodie in 'Tamara Drewe' (2010), a modern adaptation of the same story.
