I am still in disbelief it has yet to receive a legitimate DVD or blu ray release, and actually still own this film and its companion piece THE NEW LAND on laserdisc! Yes excellent point there about the 70's offering up cinematic naturalism -of which this film of course is a supreme example- and I also see the revisionism, and naturally the kinship with Ingmar Bergman. Last week I watched Troell's very first film on Criterion blu ray and was impressed. Will be looking to read your piece on THE NEW LAND! In any case Von Sydow and Ullmann were extraordinary in both films, though no surprise.Sam Julianonoreply@blogger.com
