Laila(
Visual
)
4 editions published between 1929 and 2014 in 3 languages and held by 222 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This fantastically scaled Norwegian feature comes from Danish-German director and noted cinematographer George Schnéevoigt, who brings every exotic corner of on-location Scandinavia to the forefront in a decade-spanning romantic adventure. Mona Martenson is Laila, a young girl separated from her parents as a baby and raised by a wealthy reindeer owner Aslag (Peter Malberg) in the frozen tundra. Though she is returned a year later, Laila grows into a young woman of two worlds, at home with both her settled and nomadic upbringings. Laila soon finds herself in a love triangle with her foster brother Mellet (Henry Gleditsch) and her cousin Anders (Harald Schwenzen), played out against the backdrop of an encroaching plague. Expertly photographed with a shockingly modern cinematic flair, Laila goes from snowy mountain-tops to lush green valleys, featuring treacherous waterfalls, packs of rampaging wolves and reindeer-pulled sled chases. Directed by George Schnéevoigt

The parson's widow(
Visual
)
3 editions published between 1920 and 2004 in English and Undetermined and held by 3 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In this Swedish production filmed in a Norwegian village, the new parson, although accompanied by his fiancee, is obliged by custom to marry the previous village parson's elderly widow. Ranging from the broad farce of its opening to the tranquil melancholy of the end, this film becomes a subtle study in loneliness, a recurring Dreyer theme, as the camera focuses on the immobility of Hildur Carlberg who played Dame Margaret with quiet inner authority and great good humour. Dreyer not only sought to have 'the personalities of the characters reflected in the details that surround them' but also to illuminate the naturalness of the supernatural, as when the old woman mysteriously wills herself to die. Strangely, the 77 year old actress died within weeks of the film's completion having kept her promise to Dreyer not to die before its completion
