- Fall in love with Julie Christie, like Alan Bates, Peter Finch and all her farm workers. This brings a tear to the eye in the same way that bagpipes send a tingle down the spine.
I saw this film as a child in the 60s and this scene left me with a lifelong love of English folk music.
I first saw Far From The Madding Crowd when I was 12 yrs old..& it had such a HUGE & LASTING impact on me! It was where I first discovered Julie Christie..Alan Bates.. Peter Finch..& Terrence Stamp ..with Julie Christie becoming one of my all-time favorite actresses. It also was where I first discovered Thomas Hardy..who has been my all-time favorite author. And it also was where I first discovered the BEAUTIFUL Old English countryside..Old English folk music..& the Old English way of life that was portrayed in the film..all of which I have dreamed about & loved throughout my entire life! It’s amazing that a film could leave such a CAPTIVATING & LASTING impression on someone at such a young age. But that film has left a life-long impression on me that has never faded away!!!
What a wonderful film, all the parts played brilliantly, the photography and the music. Superb!
Our beautiful gorgeously talented Julie Christie.
Remember this clip so well,,,, And the truly beautiful Julie Christie!!!!!!
Superb film that the current version can only hope to approach. No one can top the line-up of this cast - each of their relationships is perfectly rendered.
Who believes in hypnotism, that's it. She has the power of beauty.
Original folk song first written down by Ralph Vaughan Williams in 1903, from a rustic, at Ingrave, Essex.
There was a written account of it in London in 1689,but it was mostly collected from the South of England where the Nightingales were found,hence it’s called ‘the nightingale’(or sometimes ‘the bold grenadier’)!
@@Bella-fz9fyIn Far From The Madding Crowd..besides the song “Bushes and Briars”there is another song in the film called “The Bold Grenadier” which is not the same song as “Bushes and Briars”. If u watch the film again..u’ll hear both songs being sung by different singers & that they are 2 different songs.
@user-sk4kp1cr3p Thankyou,I didn't watch through,embarrassed 😢
@@user-sk4kp1cr3pThankyou,I didn’t watch through,embarrassing 😬😅
Just as beautiful as when I first heard it sung in the movie. Julie Christie is magnificent and so lovely. Beautiful. Gentle but strong. Truly a womans woman. Bravo, Julie. From a life long fan of yours. Bonnie Lee
A classic English Rose, for a time past never to return, very sad
magnificent song ... my favourite greetings to my dearest family in England ,,,
Just came across this; Julie Christie (whom I confess never to have seen before) had a beutiful, natural voice which is a pleasure to listen to that is for sure.
Ah, another case of one can sing and the other can act?
Wonderful film and Julie Christie's voice a pleasant surprise.
I saw this movie when I was a teenager and it was my favorite for years. I had the movie program, the record album, and the paperback book.
This is my 2nd favourite film of all time.[Butch Cassidy is No 1] Just perfect in every way. Alan Bates was just breathtaking. fabulous scenery & beautifully filmed
Above all it captures a way of life long gone hard times as Hardy wrote in his novels ,above all the children on the grass and their clothes ,portrayed more than anything the mood of the film ,wonderful ,
I've been listening to Sandy Denny this afternoon and I must agree Julie Christie's singing reminds me of her.
Julie Christie had an intensity and dignity that the younger actresses of today just do not have. Perhaps that is a reflection of the times... everything is made easy, and for a very short attention span
Lovely scene from a lovely film, thanks for posting it.
I love this film so thanks for posting. And it does remind me of Sandy Denny
@SirBounder Thomas Hardy is a brilliant writer. He is lyrical,with a deep sympathy for the countryside and its characters, the time, and in creating atmosphere. It's a story about the complications of love and the decisions people make in their lives and the consequences but there's so much more to enjoy in every detail of it, the scenery, and all the characters. I suppose shallow sensibilites attuned to heavily plotted action thrillers wouldn't appreciate it, but there are stil plenty who do.
Very lovely. Julie's delivery of the song reminds me of Sandy Denny a bit.
One of my favourite films...so beautiful & haunting. Thank you for posting.
first time i'va heard this song it targeted my mind anf my heart both and never gone since.
My favourite film, by far.
When I was a Young child went down to help the harvest and we kids played on the ricks and had a Harvest meal !!! Serious not a fantasy early 1950
This song is awesome
Its really lovely hearing this again...thanks for posting it.
a wonderful moment in a brilliant film
This is the most perfect adaptation of a book to film ever made. It is utterly beautiful.
Julie Christie had magnetism and she was a good actress,the camera loved her as it also loved Marilyn Monroe.
This is one of my favourite scenes of this movie. Thanks so much for posting! I absolutely loved Julie's singing.
Somehow, I remember her voice being a little softer; but that was probably from watching a grainy, poorer-quality VHS copy on television.
Gotta love those traditional Old British/Celtic songs and how this movie literally reincarnates Victorian-era Wessex.
What a great great movie!!❤️❤️
OMG, you said exactly what this causes: "This brings a tear to the eye in the same way that bagpipes send a tingle down the spine."
Thank you very much for posting this exquisite clip!
She has every one of those men in love with her!
This is beautiful.
So lovely X
Very good
Peter Dashwood taught Stamp and Christie how to dance, his widow confirmed that Peter had told her it was Isla singing, ISLA was a trained actress and was a very good imitator, and that was what she was paid to do, to sound like Julie.
So very talented
I'm doing this at A level, I love it :)
I think it’s dubbed and the voice is Isla Cameron
The love angle is similar to Ryan's Daughter. In Madding Crowd Bathsheba Everdene consumes the adoration of three competing lovers and it can only end in tragedy. In Ryan's Daughter three men are besotted with Rosie (Sarah Miles) - the village school teacher (Robert Mitchum), the village priest (Trevor Howard) and the British soldier (Christopher Jones) and it can only end in tragedy also. BTW the link between Julie Christie and Sarah Miles is David Lean . . .
You'd have to say that Ryan's daughter is similar to this, not the other way around as this was based on a novel by Thomas Hardy written in the 19th century.
Helen Trope Yeah I get you - fair point.
Good news for American audiences: this film will be released on DVD in January, 2009, as per Amazon.
The singing is beautiful it is the singing of ISLA CAMERON, I knew people who were on the set and it has been verified.
Bagpipies send a tingle UP my spine the harder they are pushed!
Regardless... I was raised on Shirley & Julie Collins.... my 1st proper girlfriend was a close relative of theirs... and the first time I stayed with them was speeding through Suffolk in a Citroen 2CV as it went past 10,000 miles on the clock!!
Happy days (p.s. I only clicked on this as I got Julie Christie mixed up with Julie 'repressed' Collins! Doh!)
10k on a 2cv.. time to get out and walk!
@@andymoore9977 I do recall that when we hit Essex and hit a 1 in 20 hill one of us had to get out and push :D
this was made into a really awesome happy hardcore song :) Dj Seduction - Sub Dub (DJ Storm Remix)
superbe tout simplement
Isla Cameron provided the singing voice for actress Julie Christie's part in the hit 1967 film version of Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isla_Cameron#:~:text=Cameron%20provided%20the%20singing%20voice,a%20domestic%20accident%20in%201980.
I fell in love with her in Dr. Zhivago!
Modern cinema couldn't make this scene! Very sad.
They would have at least dubbed it with the voice of some 'celebrity' x factor winner..
i like english folk
Why?
Alec Neate no we’re really not
pee pea yh we are
This is in reply to a comment you made two years ago, but I have to say I agree with you. I listened to Isla Cameron's version and it is quite different from this version. I also agree that this singing voice is such a close match to Julie Christie's speaking voice that it likely is Julie singing here. I'm going to see if I can find her singing anything else, just because I'm so impressed with the way she sings this. She almost has too much talent and beauty for one human being!
you are there ❤
Classic....💋☕🐾🎭💜
A level syllabus my fecking arse! See it for what it is a cracking piece of cinematography! Plus if I was a gypsy I'd have burnt my caravan for Bethseba!!!
@Sibelius92 sooo beautyfull
sooo trminiscent of old almost forgotten times
@SirBounder It's still some of the best literature. If we were only exposed to things we think we would like ,it would be a narrow education. We can discover things by being exposed to them through education and it stretches people. We can learn to appreciate and like new things - though it does not work for everyone.
@AllusCats Surely the"original soundtrack" means the soundtrack from the film (as in the film), and so it was Isla Cameron's voice, as also stated in the IMDb film site.
I Implore you to Upload the full Movie.
There are rights issues involved
2:10 he gets it wrong, he goes to say 'my love' but its 'him', just thought id point it out...
I'm afraid it's not Julie Christie's voice. I looked it up on the IMDB film site, but I can't now remember the singer's name. It seems a perfect match for her though.
@VTMCompany Bushes and Briars, on the flute.
@Sibelius92 If you listen, I think it's " I lately took my way"
not "(I've lately took my way", which means "I have lately took" - and is not grammatical)
@AllusCats I've got a video of the film somewhere, so I'll try and find the relevant bit of the film credits when I get time, and get back on this.
Music starts at 0:38
make you want to move to the country
except this is wessex!
The 2015 Version is a very poor make of the Story; And when we compare this version to the 1967 version, the shortcomings of 2015 are so glaring that it is sad..... today's movie industry fails in all aspects.
+Muthusamy Gabriel
just checked the trailers the new one looks like a an afternoon snooze film by comparison
+Muthusamy Gabriel It's pretty bad. You don't care about any of the characters and they bring absolutely nothing new to it, why bother?
I liked the new one BUT this version is my favourite.
@Wecknachricht EXACTLY
Je préfère nettement cette 1ére version avec Julie Christie.
C'est bon
@AllusCats Can you tell the difference between Isla Cameron's voice and Julie Christie's? Isla may have been chosen because of the similarity of the voices. I can't see the point of having a different person for the album only, who is less well know and less likely to sell the album. I would think the only sure way of knowing is to read the film credits.
@AllusCats If that was the case the soundtrack with Isla Cameron could not be marketed as "the original soundtrack". What evidence do you have that Julie Christie was the singer in the film?
Isla Cameron sang the song, Julie mimed! Sorry Folks! ❤ XXX
Very.........English
+MsTommyknocker Yes. What do you expect of an English film of an English book about England?
Helen Trope Hahaha
Abby, you said you thought Julie Christie was beautiful and you were hoping to watch the film. If you chance to look in here at u tube again and read this, think of the person who first told you about the film and somehow contact him again. Email Bombus_ruderatus-surely you remember? So much around me reminds me of you. Until I hear your own words and not what others say, I shall continue to seek and I shall find. My love will find a way. Tibi ad aeternam.
C-c-c-c-c-come again! For those that know...
what's name of this song?
Thank you :")
thanks
Bushes and Briars
Apparently the 2015 Far from the madding crowd is better than this one
IT MOST DEFINITELY IS NOT BETTER! The original version..(1967)..runs circles around the disappointing & pathetic 2nd rate version..(2015)! How ANYONE could prefer the 2015 version over the 1967 version is simply beyond belief & unimaginable!!!
