New York Times - 08/06/1997

"...Max Von Sydow gives a career-crowning performance....Mr. Von Sydow's Hamsun is one of the most extraordinarily rich and moving portrayals of an older person ever filmed..."

Product Description:

A compelling dramatization of the last years of Norwegian Nobel Laureate Knut Hamsun's life, when he and his actress wife shocked the world by publicly supporting the Third Reich and openly advocating the Nazi occupation of Norway. But the Hamsuns' controversial politics are strongly rooted in their unconventional and tumultuous family life. His richly nuanced performance won Von Sydow Best Actor awards from the Bodil Film Festival and from the Guldbagge, the Swedish Oscars.
