The Hourglass
1922, DA. Directed by Fritz Magnussen.
The lawyer Magnus Brygge has everything – a good job, two beautiful children and a young, beautiful student who has set her eyes on him. But soon his luck will begin to turn. A sleazy painter with nefarious ulterior motives first turns the head of the professor’s daughter and then of his young bride-to-be, with fatal outcomes and broken relationships as a result. Like sand through an hourglass, everything is about to go down in this bleak but breathtakingly beautiful winter drama with Olaf Fønss in the lead role. (stumfilm.dk)
