Love One Another

Like his second feature, this account of anti-semitic pogroms in 1905 Russia is, atypically for Dreyer, in the epic register, boasting a complex, condensed narrative packed with subplots, and impressive both for its turbulent crowd scenes and for its use of well chosen extras. Though some of the characters are broadly drawn, the recreation of turn-of-the-century St Petersburg again displays Dreyer's desire for authenticity.
