...was in Bergman's "The Virgin Spring." After the kid bites into the frog sandwich. It wasn't even the hardest part of the sequence to watch. I'm sure Victor K., and the other film experts remember. It was effective and excruciatingly unpleasant to watch-mind you, I was very young when I saw it-under ten years old. I was strongly affected by the experience, and cannot stomach (not really a pun) puking for effect, rather than for a legitimate dramatic result. Remember Robert Duvall's prank with the cream of mushroom soup, in "The Great Santini?" How about the actor in "Helter Skelter" (the tv movie/mini series) who got sick after seeing the Manson family murder victims, Sharon Tate, et al? Or how about M.Python's "The Meaning of Life," and Mr. Creosote? Flounder tossing up on Dean Wormer in "Animal House?" You didn't even see it happen-you only heard it. Only a few filmmakers can get away with showing extreme human behavior, like that, and have it lead to memorable event. Hope you don't object to my rambling.
