Probably because "Far From the Madding Crowd" is a better novel I think that tha film is also better than "Tess", which I watched last night. The Music in "Madding" is more memorable as well. Both have exquisite cinematography and both were filmed in "Hardy country". It's too bad thast the earlier film is not yet out on DVD. The DVD of "Tess" shows scratches and dirt and it has not been remastered for 5.1 sound. Perhaps someday it will get the treatment it deserves.
