Perhaps the most pure vision of war outside of documentaries. Always portraying suffering, never glorifying for entertainment
Ingmar Bergman's most underrated film, is a beautifully shot & perfectly acted look at war through the perspective of a marriage.
The effects on the relationships when war is at you feet
coupling with ‘The Passion of Anna’ in this realistic subtly orchestrated striking cinematography. Ingmar’a most political radical film
Dark drama about how war changes people. It’s on the more esoteric end of Bergman’s output. The leads both give haunting performances.
Solid effort from Bergman that emphasizes the horrors of war as countryside life devolves into absolute chaos. Sydow and Ullman are great
Strong but subtle way of showing how debilitating war is on the spirit. No matter how kindred these two were, becoming jaded was inevitable.
Underrated Bergman film. Unique film about war.
Very heavy film about war and it's toll on people and their connect.
The film tells how circumstances can change marriage and people. It's a good movie but some parts are very slow.
