so Underrated

Any top 20 list of films that does not include this amazing film is bunk. It is visually stunning and acting is amazing. It fulfills the power of the novel with the visual power of film- that is rarely utilized in movies. This is film at it's highest level. A scenario and a plot and stunning camera work. It is on par with the great works of literature No American film comes close to this film.
It covers all of the themes of Art: nature, power, desire, bugs, absurdity, food, death, dread, hopelessness. All without out beating your head over with it.
Bergman covered these topics well but not this well.
