Mel and Liam should blush w/shame: Max Von Sydow shows how to conduct revenge on those that have

attacked one's daughter.
It is the 1300s, a time when superstition vies w/Christianity (some things just don't change), and the feudal lord of a small land holding begins to worry when his beautiful and innocent young daughter doesn't return from town as planned. "The Virgin Spring" is classic Bergman with just enough metaphysical speech and images to provide depth, yet enough plot and action to satisfy less-intellectual viewers.
This film isn't usually mentioned among his greatest, but it should be. He avoids all the pitfalls that are so apparent in today's similarly plotted films; when the hideous crime occurs, we feel the loss of such radiance.
Sydow and the rest of the cast are magnificent.
