Although Price wasn't as menacing as I've seen him before, it was a different Price for me. This one was sexually overt instead of romantically frightening. But at the same time, he seemed to have a guilt about it. Either way, my favorite part was when the young soldier came back to find Sara had been violated. Instead of slapping her face and throwing her away as they usually do, he embraced her all the tighter and pledged his love to her in marriage before the alter. So sweet!! I actually cried!!! Great movie, if only for that part alone.

I saw this yesterday, but I may have to watch it again...aiming to see the version with the original score. The synthetic, '80s-era score added later (due to licensing problems) is totally inappropriate for a 1968 film. Spoils the atmosphere.
