Review of Ordet

Ordet (1943)
8/10
Better than the 1955 version

I find it hard to understand how this version can be so little known because the film is frankly qualitative and the actors are all very good.

Death in this film has an impact, so that each of the deaths is significant and rather touching, misfortune falls on the characters and we can feel it.

The film succeeds in transcribing for us the emotions of the characters, especially that of the father, in a very clear way, he succeeds in making us feel his despair, where the illusion would not take for many films, and that proves that the film, despite its seniority still has an impact on its viewers.
