Gertrud [1964]

Season 1 Episode 117

Jackie and Greg stare off into the distance in turn-of-the-century Stockholm for Carl Theodor Dreyer's GERTRUD from 1964. Topics of discussion include its placement in Dreyer's filmography, how Nina Pens Rode’s lead is one of the most pathetic characters in cinema, and why it's dull as dishwater. Is this their most hated film on the list so far?
