Filmnerd1984

I found this little gem of a movie when it was recently re-released on dvd i Norway. I never heard of it so it caught my attention. The story begins with 4 men playing bridge and they go on to tell their each and individual encounters with the supernatural involving moonlight in one way or other, but one of them debunks all of their stories as he is a psychatrist and a natural skeptic. I liked how the atmosphere evolved from story to story. Some of the acting made me laugh, but i think that is just part of the charm with old movies like this. A recommended watch for fans of old movies like myself.

25.07.2012: A film that forces you to feel something about the concept of death and what it means. It is up to the viewer himself to make up their own minds to what that is. Personally i believe in the very thing Max von Sydows character is afraid of, "nothingness". But as far as the film is concerned isn't death appearing as a person proof of the afterlife? It is not just a bleak film since it has some genuine humor in it. For one i thought the blacksmith was utterly amusing in his acts and dialog. In fact all the characters was amusing in a sense in their own way. So far this is the best Bergman film i have seen. But i have only seen between 5-7 titles thus far.
