Who knew Max von Sydow was such a physical actor? It looked as if he did most of his own stunts. Amazing.

[@E-Kat]

So, the stunts, were not stunts😂

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

@@E-Kat I read that the did all his own acting!

[@E-Kat]

@@AnthonyMonaghan it looks like he did! What an amazing chap he was. Just watching him running through the snow in his vest and underwear was making me shiver. That was an unusual film, wasn't it? 😊

Damn, what a great movie. Von Sydow and Trevor Howard were wonderful, and the supporting cast was excellent. I'd say more but I wouldn't want to inadvertently insert any spoilers. The thing about picking out movies based only on title or who is in it, is that sometimes one finds a gem like this, a veritable Hope diamond of a film.

Knocks you off balance from the beginning; dizzying, frightening, tense, disturbing. Takes you on a twisting turning unsettling journey. Another masterful thriller from the 70's. Engrossing, impossible to turn away from. Liv, Max, and Trevor are in top form; hypnotic, masterfully crafted, and completely unpredictable characters. Everybody shines, not least of which the guy who plays Anton. What a ride!? Thanks so much! Much love from Santa Cruz California. GREAT film!

So exciting ! How nostalgic I feel to come across this movie again! Thanks a lot !

Did von Sydow not play a game of chess with Death to walk away with his life? That was quite wonderful. I don't recall if he won. Very great accomplishment if he did.

[@Deebz270]

Excellente El Presidente ! And if young Max did all that action himself, then he clearly had balls of Swedish stainless-steel !

I'll be honest I started to watch this film on the TV many years ago and gave up on it quite early, wish I had'nt done so! What terrific film it is, the storyline is very good and the actors are really on top of their game, I should have stayed with back the day because it's brillant throughou!

[@Lee.Enfield-303]

So I watched this in full last night and I'm still cogitating on it. I wont spoil the story for others, but that ending ? The creators must think we are lunatics to believe what happened haha Good film though, but what do you expect from a stellar cast of actors. I see now from the comments that it was actually filmed in Sweden and Holland, it was blowing my mind during the film, but I couldn't get my head around all the English speaking and what looked suspiciously like an English Police force....bonkers 😂

[@angelosvaldocaraballo982]

Max as the lunatic murderer is much more superb comparing to his the professional killer part in "Three Days of Condor"!

Riveting, and so immersive that I expected frigid weather here in the summer when I stepped outside. What a cast! Liv Ullman, Max von Sydow, and themes of insanity in barren Scandinavia are also prevalent in "The Passion of Anna" from about the same year.

[@estelleadamski308]

To be in a asylum close so your family's home is unbelievable. And the parents aren't hysterical over the death of their daughter, nor, the sister over her sister's death? And the police inspector leaving a crime scene unsecured? A unusual movie in a bleak winter setting. Great actors. What a ending!

[@nelsonvargas9527]

The parrot saved the day .

[@TheWanderingFinnegan]

Nice twist. Made me LOL, even though it wasn't the ending I was hoping to see.

[@maqboolahmed256]

Instead of visiting asylum himself ,the inspector could have made a call to find out whether the suspect was present in the cell....the investigators seemed too slow...

[@toscadonna]

The police should have followed his footsteps in the snow right back to the asylum.😂

[@weenajensen4670]

I know it's a minor detail, but as someone from Denmark I find it so odd how the farmhouse is clearly a Danish farmhouse while the asylum is typical Swedish. Scandinavian actors speaking English is also another funny element of this film. I suppose the film was primarily funded by British cash.

[@Londonfogey]

Plus it has the ultimate English gentleman Trevor Howard dressed in a weird fur hat like some sort of Russian agent!

[@abrahamulagay4495]

The police could keep an eye on the asylum to see if he could repeat his escape, at least for a while and tell him that Emmy was saved in the hospital and she’s recovering at home, she’s going through some small memory loss. If the parrot wasn’t there, what? Bad police work? Also, before driving fast and furious to the asylum, he could make a phone call, and ask them to check Salem’s bedroom.
