Review of Hour of the Wolf (1968) by Adrian B — 21 Dec 2012
The first of three films directed by Ingmar Bergman and starring both Max Von Sydow and Liv Ullman shows a couple descent into hell with the husband going nuts. He starts to hang around a bizarre cult that drives him insane and greatly concerns his wife, who tries to help him out of his predicament and eventually, fails.
For me, this ranks as one Bergman's finest, exemplifying superbly acting and black-and-white cinematography, and the second brings in you in so strongly that you, as the viewer, can never get out.
Excellent movie and so far the best that I have seen from 1968.
