Thanks to @LeeHodgson for recommending the little game Ordet. Its a fun little challenging word game. You are given 7 letters where you have to make words from those letters, but to go to the next level you have to put all seven letters together to spell a word. I second Lee's recommendation!

The story's dominated by long takes shaped by beautiful black-and-white cinematography. There's a kind of formal equivalent to the characters' faith and lives; stern, yet beautiful, and incredibly powerful if you're prepared to submit to its rhythm. It builds slowly and deliberately to an ending that shouldn't work but does. It was an excellent way to start the day. Next up, a cinematic musical statement from before the Jazz Age, and indeed before The Jazz Singer.

My first movie of the day was Ordet ("The Word"), written and directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer. Set in 1925 on a film in Denmark (the movie was made in 1955), it's about religious faith and tensions within a family and community; the youngest son wants to marry a woman of a different denomination, the wife of the unbelieving eldest son is pregnant, and the middle son believes he's Jesus Christ.

Au-delà de l'apparente simplicité de la mise en scène, de son rythme, de la composition des plans, des visages (forcément).... J'ai découvert ce soir, tout agnostique que je suis, un grand film sur la foi et l'amour. Humaniste, émouvant et drôle parfois aussi🥲#Ordet #Dreyer
