Creative framing never giving a full view of her face after the surgery is so cool. Leaving the scene entirely without ever getting a clear look at the result. I love it.

Edit: I’ve just realized how brilliant the poster I chose for this is.

If I look terrible, I must be terrible.

easily one of my favorite performances of ingrid bergman. even with a fake scar covering half of her face, you can see how much dedication and finesse she put in her craft. here you can see how she put in the necessary work to put us (me) around her fingers since the beginning of her career, you’ll sure know after watching this that she’s destined to be a star. also criminal turned good because of a little kid storyline is so dear to me………it definitely helps because the kid is cute and their dynamic is just delightful.
