Member Rating:  
Liv Ullmann plays the widowed, crippled Anna Fromm, who while traveling on a remote island calls upon reclusive ex-convict Andreas (Max von Sydow) in order to use his telephone. After Anna leaves, Andreas discovers she's left her purse behind; he opens it, hoping to find some identification. A letter in the purse details Anna's unhappy marriage and the depths of her loneliness. Eventually, Anna moves in with Andreas, who has become more closely acquainted with her through the intervention of Anna's friends Ellis and Evan Vergerus (Bibi Andersson and Erland Josephson). But tensions and conflicts ensue, and threaten to destroy the burgeoning relationship between Anna and Andreas. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    I thought the editing was the worst I have seen in a "good film". Classic existentialism taken to the "logical" conculsion of the why bother with living. For its time it was dated. Old over-used theme. Passion had none.

    A man lives alone he is bitter and lives in the past but trys to live a poor simple live, but what is reaaly happening is that he has given up hope. Along come a girl that claims her marriage was great and she ownce had a wonderful life, but this man knows the truth, he found a letter in her purse this lady and her husband did not get along. They try a life together they fail. End of story. They fail because they cannot let go of their pasts.
