PORT OF CALL (Hamnstad) (1948) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Ingmar Bergman

Written by - Ingmar Bergman, Olle Lansberg

Starring - Nine-Christine Johsson, Bengt Eklund

 

"A suicidal factory girl just out of a reformatory falls in love with a sailor who cannot forgive her past. Quite clearly the work of a filmmaker still looking for his own original style. Though the adult themes are interesting, this is not among Ingmar Bergman's defining works and is full of many little imperfection, like the naive ending."

 

Drama, Sweden
