Carey Mulligan and Michael Sheen performing the British/Irish folksong "Let No Man Steal Your Thyme" from the movie "Far From the Madding Crowd".
I do not own any rights to this video. Just uploading it for my own entertainment because I love the simple arrangement. It's so beautiful. Definitely one of the best scenes from the 2015 film.
Lyrics from Sumaya Paruk:
Come all you fair and tender girls
That flourish in your prime
Beware, beware, keep your garden fair
Let no man steal your thyme
Let no man steal your thyme
For when your thyme, it is past and gone
He'll care no more for you
And every place your time was waste
Will all spread over with rue
Will all spread over with rue
The gardner son was standing by
Three flowers he gave to me
The pink, the blue and the violet true
And the red, red rosy tree
And the red, red rosy tree
But I refused the red rose bush
And gained the willow tree
That all the world may plainly see
How my love slighted me
How my love slighted me

I like how there was never animosity between Oak and Boldwood...jealousy on Oak's part of course but he was gentlemanly about that. Boldwood definitely seemed to respect Oak. Just goes to show rivals don't necessarily despise each other.

@TK Wallace What an excellent analysis of Boldwood and Oak you give. Yes, even though Boldwood was not meant for Bathsheba, he has a refinement of character, an important sense of self that Oak does not have. Oak is not a doormat of course, an honorable and self made man in his own right, but it is not in Oak's character to rise to a position of public prominence like it seems natural for Boldwood to do. Boldwood was made to be the face of respected status whereas Oak does not seek that type of notoriety. He is content to rise and accomplish what it is in his nature to accomplish -- to work with his hands, to honor the commitment to himself and others, but he is not one to want to openly boast about them. That is Boldwood. And that' s not a negative judgment on Boldwood. It's simply right for a man who is Boldwood.

I think this is such a brilliant scene! Among the many points of brilliance is the subtle class distinction between Boldwood and Gabriel Oak. Boldwood, a man of Bathsheba's own station, is the only person in the room secure enough to interject into her solo like that. She smiles and welcomes it, of course, which helps, but still, in essence it is an interruption. I can't imagine Gabriel doing the same thing - partly because he is humble and wants to see her shine rather than himself, but also because according to the class structure he doesn't have the "right" to speak up/sing up. And I so love their expressions here. Gabriel looks at her with a deep sense of appreciation and affection; Boldwood looks at her as if hypnotized. I liked Boldwood in the book and in this particular version, but I don't think he understood Bathesheba as a person that well. Dazzled by her beauty and charm, he didn't see her flaws (or personal strengths, like determination, etc.) like Gabriel did. Anyway, all around, such a cool scene!

I also appreciate your assessment of this intricate scene. There is so much going on here apart from the beautiful song. Michael Sheen needs much deserved praise and recognition for his lovely baritone voice! I think the complicated, but tender relationship between Boldwood and Gabriel is not emphasised enough. It's one of status to be sure, but also Boldwood eventually recognizes him as a rival. I think he treats him as an equal as a man, but not as a rival as is evidenced in future scenes. Such a fantastic story with such rich characters. Very well cast. 🙂❤️

@@amylougheed5845 Thank you for your comment! I agree with you about Boldwood eventually recognizing that Gabriel is a rival. Even though there were some things I wasn't crazy about in regard to this movie (Bathsheba's costumes seemed anachronistic at times and there were nuances in the book that I thought could have been indicated better) the casting is definitely a highlight. And anyway, one can enjoy both the book and the movie and get an even better picture of the story as a whole, considering that some aspects work better on film and some work better on paper (for example, I'm not sure film can capture the kind of surreal quality of the fire Gabriel fights at the beginning of the book, but you'd never get this wonderful meld of music and acting from words on a page!).

She was 18 and he was old enough to be her father. Boldwood really did not understand Bathsheba. He wanted to lavish jewels and clothing and a big house on her but she really didn’t want that. In the novel Boldwood was jealous and obsessive. Gabriel, however, knew her and her faults and still loved her. He stood by her even after she rejected him and never harassed her or asked her again. He accepted her answer which is so respectful. He worked beside her and taught her what she needed to know and supported her dream of running a successful farm. He tried to warn her of how her actions hurt Boldwood and also not to trust the soldier. When she finally reached her goal he was willing to step aside and then go forward with his own life. She is lucky that Gabriel accepted her as a wife after all she put him through. Gabriel Oak is an honorable and loyal character like Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird.

This song is actually a rewrite of a feminist song from the 1960s written by a group called Pentangle. But they've rewritten it for this movie as a cautionary tale against feminism. She starts by saying "let no man steal your time" or you'll "rue" (deeply regret) it. These first two stanzas are original to the 1960s version. But then it deviates from the original. The original equates men to a vine choking a tree which is the woman. In this version, however, the narrative woman is approached by a farmer bearing flowers. She says "I refused the red, red rose (love) and gained the willow tree (sadness) that all the world may plainly see how my love slighted me," the irony being that he did not slight her, and that "my love" refers, not to the farmer who offered her the rose, but to her own self-love/self-righteousness. It's her self-righteousness and eagerness to demonize others that is fueling her misery. So the song is portraying feminism as a form of female self-righteousness that leads to the misery of women. The fact that this was written into the movie is really crazy. And that they coopted a song written by 1960s feminists for the sole purpose of adding meaning to this scene. A crazy amount of thought went into this scene and I still don't understand it.
