THE PSYCHOLOGICAL CINEMA OF INGMAR BERGMAN
Ingmar Bergman is a towering figure in post-war European culture, best known internationally for the more than 60 dramas he wrote and directed for film and television between 1948 and 2003. In his native Sweden he is equally revered as a powerful stage director whose life-long position at the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm provided him with a creative outlet between films, and access to such legendary actors as Max von Sydow, Bibi Andersson, Ingrid Thulin, Erland Josephson, and Liv Ullmann, all of whom appeared in ten or more Bergman films. Though he was at times an outspoken and controversial figure in the eyes of his fellow citizens—some resented his films for fueling clichés about Sweden, and many were disappointed by his public and acrimonious dispute over taxes and four year exile in Germany—Bergman never faltered as an artist. With the release of Fanny and Alexander in 1983, he painted a sweeping and lavish portrait of bourgeois Swedish life at the turn of the century, inspired by true events in his mother’s family history as seen through the eyes of a young boy, and officially retired from filmmaking.
