520 The Baby Carriage: Infused with a jazzy, nouvelle vague-
inspired energy, Bo Widerberg's feature debut has the
freshness of youth. Building on his film criticism's call
for a socially relevant Swedish cinema, the writer turned
director offers a vivid portrait of a young factory worker
finding her way toward independence as she weathers
unexpected pregnancy, learns hard lessons from
relationships with two very different men, and leaves
behind the only home she has ever known. Abetted by fellow
filmmaker Jan Troell's coolly beautiful monochrome
cinematography, Widerberg takes a bold first step in his
mission to create a cinema that is both engaged and
engaging.
520 Raven's End: A period piece that forgoes nostalgia in
favor of a stark examination of working-class struggle, Bo
Widerberg's second feature unfolds in 1936 in the
director's hometown of Malmö. It's there, in the poor
district of Raven's End, that young Anders chases his
dream of becoming a writer while growing increasingly
disillusioned with the dead-end world that surrounds him:
an alcoholic father, a toiling mother, and the ominous
specter of Nazism. Delivering a bracing jolt of kitchen-
sink realism to Swedish cinema, Widerberg paints an
unsparing portrait of youthful idealism bumping up against
economic despair.
520 Elvira Madigan: Bo Widerberg reached new heights of visual
lyricism with the sublime retelling of a real-life
nineteenth-century romantic tragedy. Bound by their all-
consuming desire, a young circus tightrope walker and a
lieutenant with a wife and children forsake everything to
be together and escape to the countryside, only to see
their lovers' idyll gradually give way to poverty and
desperation. With its painterly, sun-dappled images and
indelible use of Mozart's Piano Concerto no. 21, this
1960s art-house sensation is the most ravishing expression
of Widerberg's recurring theme of the tension between
individual freedom and social responsibility.
520 Ådalen 31: One of Bo Widerberg's most explicitly political
works imbues the true story of a 1931 labor strike with a
powerful contemporary resonance. In the industrial
district of Ådalen, in the north of Sweden, a peaceful
demonstration takes a tragic turn, leading to a historical
general strike. Amid these events, the teenage Kjell
experiences sacrifice and strife, love and loss, and the
consequences of this shocking violence. Working once again
with Elvira Madigan cinematographer Jörgen Persson, who
captures shimmering, light-filled images in graceful
widescreen, Widerberg entwines a stirring portrait of
resistance with an intimate coming-of-age journey for a
vision of history that feels vibrantly, urgently alive.
