Language

The language spoken is all but "Old Norse", but in fact modern Swedish -- and at least in one instance taken directly out of the movie "Det Sjunde inseglet" from Ingmar Bergman; see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0w_o8knaCYU at 5:50 compared to the movie at 22:36. --81.233.185.201 (talk) 22:55, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia has rules against editors connecting the dots and coming to conclusions in the way that you have. It is a hard-and-fast policy called WP:No original research. If you find some published account of the film using some Bergman dialogue or even faux Swedish language then you can summarize what the account says.

I have removed the sentance that stated that the dialog was in "ancient languages". As previously stated, the dialog is taken from different Ingmar Bergman movies, and they have a completely different meaning than the English subtitles state. --Ojan (talk) 00:27, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
