      Dr. Jenny Isaksson: What do you mean by "real"?

      Dr. Tomas Jacobi: To hear a human voice and trust that it comes from a human who is made like me, to touch a pair of lips and at the same time know that it is a pair of lips.

    Harrowing
    I saw this film in its original release in 1976 and to this day it haunts me as if it were a part of my past (though nothing about this film is). Liv Ullman's raw performance remains best performance by an actress in my history of filmgoing.
