Leave your thoughts about The Saga of Gösta Berling.
| CinePassionFernando F. CroceThere are cyclones amid the sprawling stolidity |
| User ReviewAnna ROne of my favorites, featuring a young Greta Garbo and a dazzling performance by the Swedish stage legend, Gerda Lundequist. The entire film is evocative of 19th century Romanticist melodrama. The new score by Matti Bye is brilliant. |
| User ReviewMichael SThe best film of Greta Garbo's swedish period and one of the greatest swedish films of all time. |
| User ReviewEduardo PAqui aparece por vez primera Greta Garbo, en la novela de la premio Nobel Selma Lagerlof. Por esta pelicula la Garbo se fue para USA. Gosta es un borracho que es echado de aqui y alla, hasta que lo redime Elisabeth, personaje interpretado por la Garbo. |
| User ReviewMichael TWatch this and find out why European films were so far ahead of American films of the day. Complex, interesting -- and yes, melodramatic. Garbo is 19 here, and already has the star presence. |
| User ReviewAlia PI used to have a really crappy edited version of this movie and wondered what all the fuss was about. I still do actually, even though the film was very well made, the plot dragged and I had to watch it in three parts because I kept wanting to fall asleep. Also Lars Hanson wears way too much makeup - it's kind of scary. It's worth seeing if you are a Greta Garbo fan. Although her character is fairly important, she isn't in the movie that often. The new soundtrack was really good, especially the music playing during the fire scene. |
| User Reviewp bI like this one, it's well written and very nicely performed. Nothing I'll see again though. |
| User ReviewPeter Hthis is the film that gave garbo to the world. before hand, she was just a chubby, girlish hopeful in swedish silent film. i have a badly edited version and would like to see the whole thing from the start to finish. is that possible? |
| User ReviewMichael Lan interesting watch but definetely a little long but then again, this is epic swedish melodrama. there are some good shots and some great techniques of early cinema such as a well filmed mansion fire and a great sleigh ride across a frozen lake whilst persued by wild dogs |
| User ReviewRamona PI can see that this movie has potential but to me, at first sight, looked chopped. Later I found out that the movie has been recently restored and I've seen a chopped version. And it is Greta Garbo's breakthrough movie. Now I have to see the restored version and give a proper rating. |
