Product Description

Typically stark and reflective early film by Swedish auteur Ingmar Bergman, set on the waterfront of the bleak Gothenburg harbour. Berit Holm (Nine-Christine Jönsson) is a lonely and disturbed young woman who has worked as a prostitute and spent years in mental institutions. When she meets impoverished deckhand Goesta (Bengt Eklund), the two begin a romance, but Gosta struggles to overcome his puritanical attitude towards Berit's difficult past. A brooding and uncompromising tale of oppressive and destructive relationships, the film takes an unusual turn for the positive in the final scenes, presenting a 'happy ending' that nevertheless, in true Bergman style, leaves many problems unresolved.

3.0 out of 5 stars INGMAR BERGMAN, OPUS 5 4 Nov 2007
By Daniel S. - Published on Amazon.com
1948. Written and directed by Ingmar Bergman. Fifth movie of the Swedish master. Social Realism, Despair, Family, Doubt are the main themes of this interesting film telling the thwarted love of a sailor and a rebellious girl. You can also find a DVD edition of this film in the Criterion box set Eclipse Series 1 - Early Bergman (Torment / Crisis / Port of Call / Thirst / To Joy) (Criterion Collection).
3.0 out of 5 stars Port of Call 14 Sep 2007
By MMM - Published on Amazon.com
It's a pretty good film, first signs of Bergman's realism in his portrayal of life in a port town. It's hard to imagine that in the 40's Sweden was such a morally-strict society.
