About Carl Dreyer
Carl Dreyer started with The Presidents Wife in 1919, Leaves from Satans Book in 1921 and Love One Another in 1922. The Parson Widow arrived in 1920 work, Michael in 1924 and Master of the House in 1925. Early Danish and Swedish silent work favors bare rooms, slow pans and stern moral tests for priests, painters and household heads.
The Passion of Joan of Arc came in 1928 with Renee Falconetti close ups cut against judges at Rouen, Vampyr in 1932 with Allan Gray lost in fog at Courtempierre, Day of Wrath in 1943 on witch trials, Two People in 1945, Ordet in 1955 on the Borgen farm faith healing and Gertrud in 1964 closing on Nina Pens Rode refusing compromise. Shorts sit outside this feature list. Watch in release order for face and door patience growth with full weight.
Good to know
These are standalone stories with no shared continuity, so there is no chronological order to untangle at all. Joan and Ordet share faith trials but no plot links. Gertrud closes the run as final feature with slow talk. Vampyr works as horror entry with soft sound design, while Day of Wrath rewards patient viewing for candlelit trial staging and choral restraint. Start with Joan, Vampyr or Ordet for three doors in with care.
