Brink of Life

 

aka: Nara Livet
Sweden 1958, 84 minutes
Dir. Ingmar Bergman
In Swedish with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama

 

Aroview: Minor, but accomplished Bergman potboiler concerns three women in a maternity ward, who must each decide whether to give up their babies for adoption.

Although a little thin by the Swede's standards, the trio of (Cannes-winning) performances are the film's strongest suit, as is Bergman's unwavering attention to the female character.
