Criterion # 128

Director: Carl Theodor Dreyer
'Before there were Luis Bunuel, Robert Bresson, Ingmar Bergman, or Andrei Tarkovsky (not to mention Lars von Trier, Carlos Reygadas, and Guy Maddin), there was Carl Theodor Dreyer (1889-1968), the original solitary, uncompromising film artist.'

Description: Torben Skjodt Jensen's elegant documentary is a collage of memories and reflections on one of cinema's greatest directors. Visually rich and densely layered, Carl Th. Dreyer--My Metier illuminates an artist too little understood and too important to overlook. Through interviews, historical writings, and rare archival footage, a portrait of Dreyer emerges: an austere perfectionist, yes, but also a passionate man possessing a genuine sense of humor. The Criterion Collection is proud to present this in-depth study of Dreyer's life and work for the first time on home video.

Day of Wrath
Carl Th. Dreyer, 1943
The young wife of an older pastor falls in love with her stepson when he returns to their small seventeenth-century village, where stepping outside the bounds of the village's harsh moral code has disastrous results. Carl Dreyer's Day of Wrath remains an intense, unforgettable experience.
Ordet
Carl Th. Dreyer, 1955
In Carl Dreyer's Ordet, a farmer's family is torn apart by faith, sanctity, and love|one child believes he's Jesus Christ, a second proclaims himself agnostic, and the third falls in love with a fundamentalist's daughter.
Gertrud
Carl Th. Dreyer, 1964
Carl Dreyer's last film is a meditation on tragedy, individual will, and the refusal to compromise. A woman leaves her unfulfilling marriage and embarks on a search for ideal love|but neither a passionate affair with a younger man nor the return of an old romance can provide the answer she seeks.
