Hamsun
Hamsun ★★ 1996

After the war Hamsun and his equally outspoken pro-German wife, Marie (Norby), are deemed traitors and are put on trial. Based on a book by Thorkild Hansen. Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian with subtitles. 154m/C VHS, DVD . NO DK SW Max von Sydow, Ghita Norby, Sverre Anker Ousdal, Ernst Jacobi, Anette Hoff, Erik Hivju; D: Jan Troell; W: Per Olof Enquist; C: Jan Troell; M: Arvo Part.
