And So It Is

About This Movie

And So It Is, released in 1966, presents a raw, haunting exploration of revenge and grief. The atmosphere is heavy, almost oppressive, which really draws you into the peasant woman's tragic plight and her husband's descent into vengeance. The pacing is deliberate, allowing tension to build, and the practical effects used in certain scenes add a gritty realism that’s hard to shake off. Performances are stark and emotive, capturing the despair and desperation of the characters. There’s something distinctly unsettling about how the film tackles its themes, making it a curious piece for those interested in lesser-known dramas shaped by real-world brutality.

And So It Is has a somewhat elusive presence among collectors, likely due to its limited release and the obscurity of its director. Various formats have appeared over the years, but finding a quality print can be a challenge, which adds to its allure. Interest in this film tends to come from those who appreciate the more obscure, gritty dramas of the 60s, making it a unique gem for a dedicated collection.
