Julie Christie models a penny-farthing.

November 29, 2021

In a still from a 1967 publicity photo session to promote Far From the Madding Crowd,  Julie Christie models a child’s size penny farthing bicycle– and a very contemporary minidress. Christie’s outfit is a far cry from the Victorian-era costumes she wore in the John Schlesinger-directed adaptation of the Thomas Hardy novel.  Alan Bates, Peter Finch and Terence Stamp also starred. Look for more photos of the cycling Christie on the “Search By Name” function at the bottom of this Rides a Bike page.
