You can freeze almost any frame of this film and be looking at a striking still photograph.

Elaborately rhetorical at the end, this 1961 film nevertheless develops its theme lucidly and with some of Bergman's most unforgettable sequences.

It is almost superfluous to note that the film is beautifully made: visually exquisite, ingeniously knit.
