An essay comparing this director’s works to Gothic architecture discusses a film in which a character who recites the Song of Songs is tracked by the swiveling camera on her way to a torture room. An early gay film by this director about the love between a master artist and his model starred a compatriot who directed a documentary about witch hunts, Häxan (“HECK-san”). In a scene by this director, the room subtly rotates along with the camera’s 360-degree pan, which captures a girl asking her possibly mad uncle to (*) resurrect her mother. A grating casts a cross-shaped shadow on the ground in a scene from a film by this director, which includes a close-up of tears streaking down the title character’s face as she wears a straw crown. This director of Ordet cast Renée Falconetti in a 1928 historical drama about the title saint. For 10 points, name this Danish director of The Passion of Joan of Arc. ■END■
