Chef-d'oeuvre du cinema muet suedois dont le sujet n'est pas sans rappeler celui du "Kid" que realisera Chaplin quelques annees plus tard. (Orange)
Critiques (1)
A decent drama that would find its place even today in women's films. The story of Ingeborg Holm, who starts out as a contented housewife in a sober household, reaches both a peak of happiness and a fatal slump in a very short period of time, a mirroring of modern times in its horrific nature. The quality of the acting and the escalation of existential tension work perfectly. Perhaps only the epilogue is a somewhat futile way out of the whole situation. Ingeborg Holm is considered to be the first classic work of Swedish cinema and a key project for Victor Sjöström's future direction. It’s an adaptation of Nils Krok's 1906 play based on a true story. The film also influenced a change in legislation. ()
