The Virgin Spring HD Remastered Edition

[Machine Translation] Ingmar Bergman, the greatest master of Scandinavian cinema and the greatest master of the 20th century, is back with his world heritage masterpieces in a digitally remastered DVD format! Bergman's masterpiece, which has won numerous awards including an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film. The film depicts a tragedy that befell a pretty young girl and her father's painful revenge. The contrast between the pure light and shadows of Northern Europe, shot by master photographer Sven Nyqvist, is superb. Bergman, a great admirer of Akira Kurosawa, was deeply impressed by "Rashomon," and this film was born from his strong influence. This is a film that is a perfect example of the excellent direction of actors that Francois Truffaut pointed out. --Ingeri, a servant who is jealous of the beautiful and naive Carlin, the only daughter of the wealthy farmer There, attempts a small revenge by putting a toad in her lunch box sandwich. Carlin and her companion, Ingeri, are on their way to deliver candles to the church, but as they go deep into the forest, past beautiful lakeshores and fields, Carlin, acting alone, is raped and killed by a vagrant. Ingeri, who has been following them, witnesses the whole thing, but he is unable to stop himself from enjoying and fearing at the same time the rape of Carlin, whom he hates. The vagrants knock on the door of There's mansion, unaware that he is the father of the woman they have killed... The film won the 33rd Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, the 17th Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and was ranked No. 1 in the 1961 Kinema Junpo Top Ten Best Foreign Language Films.
