A Man There Was (Swedish: Terje Vigen) is a 1917 silent Swedish drama co-written and directed by Victor Sjöström,[1] based on a poem of the same title by Henrik Ibsen. With a budget of SEK 60,000, it was the most expensive Swedish film made up to that point,[2] marking a new direction in Swedish cinema with more funding to fewer films, resulting in better overall quality.[3]

This film is considered to be the start of the golden age of Swedish silent film that would end after Gösta Berlings Saga in 1925, although films such as Ingeborg Holm (1913) are often assigned to this era as well.
