Day Of Wrath

1943 Carl Theodor Dreyer
Changing characters
more than just one way on the sympathy, though ends more clearly
use of light to show attention. Trope of white around the face
huge, high contrast
sensational, baroque framing
very realist despite these touches
long pans
a steady story, concentrate hard as underplayed
a few sensational scenes, light, slow walking
looks great at times, if a little stagey
