Reviews in German: "Sowohl an der historischen Stoffwahl als auch an der Gestaltung der Figuren ì
merkt man, dass sich Fanck in seinem letzten Bergfilm an den Filmen seines ì
Schülers Luis Trenker zu orientieren versucht, ohne jedoch dessen ì
dramaturgisches Talent zu besitzen. In der Naturdarstellung hat Fanck noch ì
nachgelegt: Als der schneeblinde Balmat zu halluzinieren beginnt, erscheinen ì
die Berge und Witterungen geradezu alptraumhaft verzerrt und gespenstisch ì
verformt. Es scheint, als ob Fanck den Aberglauben und Naturbegriff jener ì
Epoche mit den Mitteln des Kinos zu rekonstruieren versuchte." (cr, ì
