When you have an international best seller that was on thelist for 42 weeks and then made into a multi-Oscar-nominated Swedish film that became the third-most successful in the history of that country Ingmar Bergman called home, you might wonder what the need was for an English-language American remake.

Forster and Magee also use flashbacks of the younger Otto and Sonya as they meet, marry, endure tragedy, and share a life. The flashbacks are not intrusive and really add to our understanding of just who Otto was, and perhaps why he became the way he is today. Both young stars are well cast here in a movie that knows exactly what it is doing in order to win our hearts.
