NEW LAND

3 Original Swedish 9 3/8 inch x 7 1/4 inch Stills for the 1972 Jan Troell Historical Drama THE NEW LAND (NYBYGGARNA), based on the novel by Vilhelm Moberg and starring Max Von Sydow, Liv Ullmann, Eddie Axberg, Allan Edwall and Hans Alfredson.

This monumental mid-nineteenth-century epic from Jan Troell charts a Swedish farming family’s voyage to America and their efforts to put down roots in this beautiful but forbidding new world. Movie legends Max von Sydow and Liv Ullmann give remarkably authentic performances as Karl Oskar and Kristina, a couple who meet with one physical and emotional trial after another on their arduous journey. The precise, minute detail with which Troell depicts the couple’s story—which is also that of countless other people who sought better lives across the Atlantic—is a wonder to behold.

The stills are in very good condition.
