DAY OF WRATH
BY CARL THEODOR DREYER
Filmed during the Nazi occupation of Denmark, Day of Wrath is a harrowing drama about the church's persecution of women for witchcraft in the 17th century. The film has immense power and an overwhelming sense of torment, yet the filmmaker never loses sight of the eroticism inherent in the concept of witchcraft. (1943, 97 min, 35mm)
