Contest! Win Tickets to See 'Far from the Madding Crowd' in Vancouver and Calgary!

Calling all members of the Cinemablographer book club! A great adaptation of a literary classic is coming your way when Far from the Madding Crowd hits theatres this May from Fox Searchlight Pictures. Far from the Madding Crowd opens in Toronto on May 1 and expands in the coming weeks, but readers in Vancouver and Calgary can attend a sneak peek before the film opens in their city. Answer the trivia below to win tickets!


Synopsis: Based on the literary classic by Thomas Hardy, FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD is the story of independent, beautiful and headstrong Bathsheba Everdene (Carey Mulligan), who attracts three very different suitors:  Gabriel Oak (Matthias Schoenaerts), a sheep farmer, captivated by her fetching willfulness; Frank Troy (Tom Sturridge), a handsome and reckless Sergeant; and William Boldwood (Michael Sheen), a prosperous and mature bachelor.  This timeless story of Bathsheba’s choices and passions explores the nature of relationships and love – as well as the human ability to overcome hardships through resilience and perseverance.
