Sult (1966) … Cinema can’t get any better than this. If Liv Ullmen’s performance in Bergman’s ‘Face to Face’ is best acting performance by an actress IMO, then Per Oscarsson’s performance in this film is probably the BEST acting perfoamce by an actor in the history of cinema. Pure Nirvana!
It is based upon the novel ‘Hunger’ by Norwegian author Knut Hamsun. Very Bergmanesque movie, brilliant study of an artist’s pride/ego, dying for a meal but too proud & pretentious to accept it via charity or dishonesty. Visually, this movie is breathtaking, those beautiful shots are going to stay with me forever, excellent black and white photography, brilliant camera work, remarkable acting. What a movie! WATCH IT …
