More Detail:
The film does not quite capture the novel’s drama of Jude and Sue. Rather, the film provides isolated moments of over-dramatized events rather than a plot progression. Despite fine acting, JUDE limps and whimpers along in its story-telling. There are also nasty scenes of animal slaughter, a bloody childbirth and several sexual situations with full male and female nudity. There are some positive reflections on God’s law of marriage and of going to church, but Sue’s final repentance is born more out of desperate guilt than of faith. The film sadly shows sympathy for its misguided lovers and condemns society as the bullying giant that forces its values on others. The film is as misguided as its lovers.
