What happens?

This award-winning motion picture is a must-see adaptation of Thomas Hardy's timeless tale.

After being away at school, Grace (Emily Woof -- THE FULL MONTY, VELVET GOLDMINE) feels she's outgrown her rural hometown and childhood sweetheart, a simple woodsman named Giles (Rufus Sewell -- EXTREME OPS, A KNIGHT'S TALE). She longs to travel abroad with the rich widow Mrs. Charmond (Polly Walker -- 8 1/2 WOMEN, EMMA, ENCHANTED APRIL) and marries a handsome young doctor. But Grace soon learns that culture is no substitute for true love.

Honored with awards at numerous international film festivals, the first-rate cast of THE WOODLANDERS brings this treasured tale to life.
