Adam pitches Zands Ingmar Bergman's underrated 1968 addition to the horror canon, Hour of the Wolf. The film, which moves in a sort of dream logic, follows the disintegration of the marriage of Johan and Alma Borg (Max von Sydow and Liv Ullman) at the hands of a sinister social club of aristocrats on a remote Swedish island. Adam and Zands discuss the film's oddly structured plot, it's themes of sexuality, repression, violence, pregnancy, parenthood, art and artist, regret and the connection between partners, as well as its metafictional mirroring of the relationship between Bergman and star Liv Ullman.
CW for violent, onscreen child death, attempted spousal homicide and some nudity.
Adam's Rating: 4.5/5
