Two boys, a toy gun, and a cityscape filled with promise and dread. On the one hand, The War Game is a typical piece of 1950s–60s allegorical short form cinema, a time capsule almost. With hindsight though, one sees Zetterling’s personality and vision in every frame: the way she smoothly moves from realism to abstraction, Free Cinema to Expressionism; the extraordinary quality of the acting; the sensuality in even the grimmest moments. Pure genius!
