Does G*d Hate Lovers?
Swedish forces have invaded Denmark and taken the small town. Soldier Poul Reumert has been wounded, so he is quartered in Frederik Jacobsen's home. Jacobsen's daughter, Olga Belajeff and Reumert fall in love, despite his oath to the Swedish king, and he must go off with the Swedish forces. But he returns secretly, and he and Miss Belajeff hide away in a small cabin in the woods.
A. W. Sandberg's movie has not only an anti-clerical message, in the love of these two people against the anger of the local parson. It rages against G*d himself, who rains down death on these two lovers, who only want to live together quietly. Although Denmark had once led the world in film production, is now a backwater, and the photographic component of this story is a bit old-fashioned in its compositions and camerawork; there are only a couple of moving shots, while much work is accomplished by the rapid cutting pace. Still, in its anti-war message, as well as its opposition to the perceived law of G*d, it is forthright and a bit shocking.
