Movie • 1957 • Drama  

Report
When disillusioned Swedish knight Antonius Block returns home from the Crusades to find his country in the grips of the Black Death, he challenges Death to a chess match for his life. Tormented by the belief that God does not exist, Block sets off on a journey, meeting up with traveling players Jof and his wife, Mia, and becoming determined to evade Death long enough to commit one redemptive act while he still lives.

No dog is shown onscreen, but someone uses a bowl of what we're told is dog's blood to ward off evil.

No. There is a young child character who crawls around without underwear on and you can see their backside (and very briefly their genitals) however it is not sexualized at all.

No. Someone falls on top of a pig at one point, however the pig seems unbothered and unharmed.

It's implied that a character was about to be raped at one point before being rescued. A character tells another character "I could have raped you" but that they won't bother because it's not fun for them anymore (implying they have raped others in the past).

A man grabs a woman and threatens to sexually assault her. Another man steps in and intervenes, sending him away. The second man then tries to sexually assault her (embracing and kissing her against her will). She resists and he backs off, saying he could've done it if he wanted to. Then he tells her he needs a woman to do housework for him so she stays with him and they're basically a couple after that, which some viewers might find upsetting.

A woman accused of witchcraft has been sentenced to be burned at the stake. It appears that she goes unconscious before the flames reach her and we don't see the actual burning. However, we do see several scenes of preparation leading up to the burning, with the woman in distress, so it could be pretty bad if this kind of scene is triggering for you.

A woman accused of witchcraft is tied up and suffering, apparently from a recent interrogation. We later learn that her hands have been broken, and she is burned at the stake. There's also a scene of people whipping themselves and each other with cords in a Christian penitence ritual. And another scene where a man in a bar is bullied, beaten, and forced to dance like a dancing bear among flames.

Not shown onscreen, but someone apparently dies by falling out of a tree when the tree is cut down.

A man slashes at another man's face with a knife. We don't see the cut but we see blood pouring out from between the victim's fingers and I thought his eyes had been hurt, but it turns out (when we see him later) the cut is on the side of his face.

No actual ghosts, but Death is a character in the movie. He wears spooky black robes and is somewhat ghost-like because some people can see him and others can't.

Someone fakes suicide (by stabbing himself in the chest with a fake knife) but a moment later we see that it was fake. (He does die slightly later by other means)

The protagonist is returning from The Crusades, and has seen horrors of war. But no explicit symptoms are shown.

Some sexual content is implied, and there is one explicit reference to rape, however there are no on-screen sex scenes.

[SPOILERS] It's a bleak and nihilistic movie but the ending is not as unhappy as you might expect, since the most likeable characters do escape Death (for now). Still, not one to watch if you need something light.

It's black and white and there's nothing too gory, but there is definitely some blood and a decomposing body is also shown.
