Far from the Madding Crowd is a 1915 British silent drama film produced and directed by Laurence Trimble and starring Florence Turner, Henry Edwards and Malcolm Cherry.

After the film's premiere on 16 November 1915, at a private screening at London's West End Cinema, the press response was favorable.

… One feels that the country in which the action is laid is really the Wessex of the novel and that the farm, the cattle, the sheep are the genuine ones over which Gabriel Oak watched with such care."

[7] The production was panned in a Variety review,[1] which criticized the narrative as hard to follow and deemed the 30-year-old Turner as "no longer qualified physically to portray the roles of the simple ingenue type".

The reviewer concluded, "Far from the Madding Crowd is one of those stories of the type that appeared a decade or two ago in The Fireside Companion, intended primarily for consumption in the scullery and pantry by the maids and the cook and the picture carries the same atmosphere.
