That Chris Storer quote where he said "it's a partnership you'll" see is probably the surest confirmation to me that this is a love story.

I just wanna know if Storer is a Thomas Hardy fan because, for all the beautiful romances in classic literature, the one between Bathsheba and Gabriel in Far From the Madding Crowd is my favourite.

Theirs is a love slowly built, with false starts, angry splits, romantic rivals, but in the end they end up happy and together because they truly understand each other, help each other, overcome their own insecurities for each other; in short, they are friends + and in many ways comrades foremost.

Right at the end, as Gabriel and Bathsheba finally realise they have not and could not love anyone else, Hardy writes this beautiful passage "theirs was that substantial affection which arises (if any arises at all) when the two who are thrown together begin first by knowing the rougher sides of each other's character, and not the best till further on, the romance growing up in the interstices of a mass of hard prosaic reality. This good-fellowship—camaraderie—usually occurring through similarity of pursuits, is unfortunately seldom superadded to love between the sexes, because men and women associate, not in their labours, but in their pleasures merely. Where, however, happy circumstance permits its development, the compounded feeling proves itself to be the only love which is strong as death—that love which many waters cannot quench, nor the floods drown, beside which the passion usually called by the name is evanescent as steam."

Syd and Carmy have seen the worst of each other but they keep coming back, trying harder to be better for each other and themselves - theirs is romance that is growing in the interstices of hard reality - of course they'll end up together and of course it could only ever have been this way.

From now on, you have a mistress, not a master. I don't yet know my talents in farming, but I shall do my best. Don't suppose, because I'm a woman, I don't know the difference between bad goings-on and good. I shall be up before you're awake. I shall be a-field before you are up. It is my intention to astonish you all. Back to work, please. Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)
