This is a lot of discussion for such a boring movie, but HARVEST is an adaptation of a book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvest_(Crace_novel). The setting/time period was likely chosen to express the theme of transition from a (probably mythical) in-harmony-with-earth agricultural world to a capitalist society based on exploitation/ownership of resources.

ChatGPT refused, Copilot had no issues. I wish ChatGPT had done this because they do a much better job most of the time.

That was certainly an inspiration, although, so Wikipedia informs me, this happened earlier than the mid-19C setting of the movie as suggested by the style.

I think the setting was mainly chosen for esthetic reasons , much like is done in opera, when you set, say a Wagner opera in 1920s Chicago. In this movie it does work in a sense, because it creates a Thomas Hardyesque atmosphere.
