Elvira Madigan
This DVD reveals the classic love story between two people completely in love with one another, against all reasons secular and religious. Society says this story cannot be and yet it was and continues to be told and seen. Based on historical events, the story of Elvira Madigan and her lover is so pure and beautiful, not matter what one's persuasion or belief that it almost seems to defy what I saw. I viewed it in a small theater in Dallas in 1968 during my graduate school days and never forgot it. It is both enchanting and haunting at the same time and a film worth a place in any library. Once seen, this story will not be forgotten both in its direction and cinematography, as well as the ending. I love this DVD!
