A Thoughtful Film
Les from Dublin, 10 May 2008
Bergman doing what he does best here, really laying on the angst with a trowel; but in doing so he has made a very thoughtful film - full of drama. The acting is first class, it's well scripted, well cast, well staged, and once again Bergman employs the outstanding talents of Sven Nykvist - probably the most consistently brilliant lighting camerman in the history of film making. This is an art house film and will not be to everyone's taste - but then that's what Ingmar Bergman is all about.

Tough going but worth it. Loneliness, frustration, and the sheer unfairness of life, with a harrowing story and brilliant acting. Great film but pick a good night to watch, not a night when the world is lining up against you!!!!!

I really liked it. It was very slow moving but beautifully shot and really made you think about life. It was a movie about women for women. My boyfriend hated it. He'll never watch another bergman movie every again!
Typical Bergman

Intruiging and quite watchable, but very arty and overly stylistic in true Bergman Tradition. Only for Bergman fans!
