Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The Ox is a 1991 film from Sweden directed by Sven Nyqvist.Sweden, winter 1867-68. Life is so bad in a particular province, due to two years of poor harvests, that the people are starving and the province is emptying out as residents emigrate to America. Helge Roos (Stellan Skarsgård) has a young wife, Elfrida, and an infant daughter, Anna, and they're all hungry. One day, in desperation, he kills and slaughters local rich man Svenning Gustafsson's ox.Helge hides the meat, and his family survives the winter. But he's riven with guilt, and when the local vicar (Max von Sydow) catches him with the hide, Helge is relieved. He is shocked, however, when he goes to court and learns the severity of his punishment.One of only five films directed by Sven Nyqvist, a world-famous cinematographer best remembered as the cinematographer for many of Ingmar Bergman's movies. Liv Ullmann appears as Maria, Svenning's wife.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

The Good Shepherd | |
The Ox / int_fd6f1c18 | comment |
The Good Shepherd: The vicar, doing his best to keep the people together in dark and desperate times. He appears in court with Helge and is just as shocked when Helge gets life in prison. Later he works to get Helge out, getting all the people of the village to sign a petition, finally securing Svenning's signature on the petition to get Helge out of jail after five years. | |
