Ingrid Bergman was really bad in this one


I'm so dissapointed. I love her but the only thing she did was to smile. This could have been such a good dark character.
But the lady who played Pilar was amazing, very convincing and real. Otherwise the film was too slow.

I found this movie very good especially the end although it was a bit slow, Ingrid Bergman was good also but maybe it's not her best performance.

Not really her fault. The script doesn't give her that much to say or do. Her character is rather cliched, really. Hemingway is better with male characters, generally speaking.
