Raven's End


1963 drama

Rating: 16/20

Plot: A writer struggles with getting published while dealing with relationship issues and his parents.

This was one of Bergman's favorite movies.

Two quotes stood out to me:

1) "The brighter the light, the clearer you see the scum."
2) "The napkin is the only thing that separates man from the carnivorous animals."

I suspect there were some subtitle issues with the version of this that I watched, and I'd like to see it again.

A startling conclusion. I wasn't sure how I was supposed to feel. There was a crossroads moment that reminded me of a pair of crossroads moments in my own life, and I was conflicted.

I can't write anymore. I have a few more of these to get finished before 2019 is over.
