I would replace it on the list with Dreyer’s Day of Wrath (1943). 1001: A Film Odyssey is produced, directed and written by Chris, a librarian.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04803620768028761898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-77545929613819776492018-06-06T21:58:44.495+03:002018-06-06T21:58:44.495+03:00The acting style is a problem.

The way she demands total devotion from her husband complicates the situation and as you say is unreasonable. At the same time, the film calls out men who don’t love their wives enough, even though I kind of sympathized with the husband because his wife is difficult to please. The stiff and unnatural acting made it tough to care though.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.com
