A Swedish-language poster for *The Razor's Edge* gives the 1946 Hollywood film its local title, *Knivens egg*, rendered here as "Knivens aeg." Tyrone Power, who plays Larry Darrell, a World War I veteran who sets out to find the meaning of life, and Gene Tierney, his fiancée Isabel, are the two names the poster leads with. Based on W. Somerset Maugham's 1944 novel and directed by Edmund Goulding, the film was a major studio production that earned Academy Award nominations, and it remains one of Power's best-known dramatic roles.
