In Swedish with English subtitles.

Gustav Molander's Woman Without a Face (originally Kvinna utan Ansikte) is distinguished by a screenplay by no less than Ingmar Bergman. Not a remake of Molander's A Woman's Face, as one might assume at first glance, the later film concentrates on the emotional turmoil experienced by an artist named Ruth (Gunn Wallgren). Unable to reach out to her friends and loved ones, Ruth puts her fate in the hands of the duplicitous Victor (George Funkqvist), who is Satan in everything but name.

5 of 5 A Real Treasure July 5, 2021
Reviewer: RICHARD WILLETT from Paris, France  
This is a film Bergman wrote to be directed by Gustaf Molander, who made theSwedish"Intermezzo," making Ingrid Bergman a star.  One of Sweden's greatest actresses, Gunn WÃ¥llgren-- who made few films, but her last one was "Fanny and Alexander."--  and Alf Kjellin burn up the screen with their twisted passion as Bergman's script explores the dark side of love and sex.  The character played by WÃ¥llgren is solidly written and is certainly one of the most interesting characters Bergman created.  She obviously takes delight in creating such a complex character, a "femme fatale," trapped in her own perversion. Kjellin is perfect as the seemilingly proper family man who falls into WÃ¥llgren's carefully spun spiderweb of sado-masochism.  This film is an absolutely must-see for anyone interested in Bergman's early years, and we must thank Moviedetective.net for providing the only print on DVD in the world with English subtitles.
