Since Barry is afraid the police will be very hard on him for driving recklessly and hurting someone, he forces them to make a pact never to tell what happened. They decide that there is nothing they can do for the boy so they do not go back to him. Instead of stopping the car and helping, Barry continued down the road to a phone where they stopped so Ray could call the police. Coming around a corner too fast, Barry didn't see the boy, David Gregg, on the bike until it was too late and he was hit. Ray and Julie were in the back seat making out. Barry was driving recklessly on a winding road with Helen next to him in the front seat. Eventually, the details of what happened last summer come out. Finally, Barry gets a phone call to meet someone at the football field amid the firework celebration and gets shot.Īfter each contact from the unknown person, Julie, Helen, Ray, and Barry talk to each other about who could be leaving these messages and what they all mean. A short while later, Ray gets a similarly nondescript envelope in the mail that contains only a newspaper article about the accident. Julie gets a nondescript letter in the mail with only seven words on it that says, "I know what you did last summer." Then Helen finds a picture of a boy on a bike ripped from a magazine advertisement of some sort, taped to her apartment door. The mysterious clues come in a year after the accident.

Sørensen wants nothing more than to clear Qvist's good name and marry Mette. Sørensen is forced to investigate by Bruus's brother, but he does so reluctantly because he is engaged to marry the rector's daughter, Mette, in three weeks. He writes about Søren Qvist, a village rector with a short temper, who is accused of murdering his unlikeable servant, Niels Bruus, when Bruus disappears after a violent argument. The story is told in the form of diary entries by Erik Sørensen, the judge and sheriff of the community of Vejlby. The ministry noted that "the style illuminates elegiac pain and discomfort in an eerily intense drama, and the story is difficult to shake off." Danish literary historian Søren Baggesen stated "Blicher is not just the first of Danish literature's great storytellers, he is one of the few tragic poets Danish literature has ever had." Synopsis In 2006, The Rector of Veilbye was included in the Cultural Canon of Denmark by the Danish Ministry of Culture. Blicher's tragic tale has been adapted for the screen three times by Danish filmmakers. The novella is based upon a true murder case from 1626 in the village of Vejlby near Grenå, Denmark, which Blicher knew partly from Erik Pontoppidan's Danish Church History (1741), and partly through oral tradition. The Rector of Veilbye ( Danish: Præsten i Vejlbye), is a crime mystery written in 1829 by the Danish author Steen Steensen Blicher.
