. . . by digging a grave with her bare hands for its small wooden coffin, MAHLER reveals. Sadly, the film is fairly ambiguous as to the cause of the death for one of this couple's young daughters, and whether the bereaved mother Alma M. Had to also bury the child's casket with ungloved fingers. In England they say, "In for a penny, in for a pound" but in MAHLER it's sometimes difficult to decipher who's pounding whom. Some of the main characters spend the whole movie on a train, but the railroad seems to lack any tunnels so these passengers have to pull down all of the shades of their sleepers if they want to get it on. How inconvenient!
