“The directing (by Hasse Alfredson) and the cinematography (by Rolf Lindström and Jörgen Persson) are excellent. During the whole movie the audience can hear the bittersweet tones of Verdiu0026#39;s Requiem. Not also the actors makes this movie to a masterpiece. Maria Johansson is brilliant as the lame girl. But the best performance of them all is made by Stellan Skarsgård as Sven – u0026quot;The Idiotu0026quot; (because of his harelip). Skarsgårdu0026#39;s performance may be the best throughout the whole history of Swedish film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSven and the other farmers over the countryside of Skåne, in southern Sweden, have to endure the mental torture from the factory owner in the district, The Evil Man, played by Hasse Alfredson himself. But after enough suffering, Sven gets enough and with the angels of vengeance he walks over the fields to kill The Evil Man, the factory owner. All this to the music of Verdiu0026#39;s Requiem. This scene may be one of the strongest ever throughout the FILM HISTORY. See this movie, but carefully, do not hesitate.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enIf only the Lumiere brothers could have seen this…”
