The Saga of Gosta Berling
(Mauritz Stiller, Sweden, 1924, 35mm, 183 min)
A fallen young priest, a beautiful Italian countess, an enchanting landscape: The Saga of Gsta Berling is a gem of early Swedish cinema. Based on the novel by Selma Lagerlf, Greta Garbo stars in the breakthrough role that would lead her to Hollywood stardom. Breathtaking sets, lavish costumes and a gorgeous score weave together the story of a disgraced young priest (Swedish star Lars Hanson) who seeks redemption and finds love with the mesmerizing Elizabeth (Garbo). Recently restored to its original length and splendor, this is a dazzling epic that guarantees to leave a lasting impression.
Featuring a live score by accordionist Murl Allen Sanders and an introduction by author Paul Norlen.
