I only saw it a couple of years ago and by then it's reputation loomed so large I suppose it was inevitable to be a trifle let down. <br /><br />But the imagery of it is impressive and it is a fine piece of filmmaking. It will never replace Wild Strawberries as my favorite Bergman but it's a very good film.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-1273460035610549812018-03-22T06:35:29.828-05:002018-03-22T06:35:29.828-05:00Yeah, it's pretty short.

This is the first film of his that I saw as I had no clue what to expect other than the chess scenes as they were parodied in <i>Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey</i> which I heard Bergman did like. It is a great film as they're all quite complex and challenging but there's also films that are accessible as everyone needs to see a few films of his. I've probably seen nearly more than half of his films and hope to watch everything he's done. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-30690754121937294432018-03-20T12:26:35.837-05:002018-03-20T12:26:35.837-05:00So glad you liked this!

Actually all of his films that I've seen have had a good amount of humor, but this is the one where it surprised me the most. Max von Sydow is of course amazing, but the guy who plays Death is great too! Such a great face.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480863610135936930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-69030503504572639242018-03-20T09:34:17.087-05:002018-03-20T09:34:17.087-05:00So far, this is my favourite Bergman film because ...So far, this is my favourite Bergman film because there is some dark humour especially with Death.

Can you believe that final dance scene on the hilltop almost didn't happen? Bergman came up with it on the spot, and thank god, because that shot will live forever.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.com
