Description
Summary:
In 1982, Ingmar Bergman bid farewell to cinema - a painful departure for those who admired his films, but not nearly as difficult for the director himself. "It was far harder giving up theater," Bergman admits in this retrospective look at his long, boundary-pushing stage career. Early collaborator Erland Josephson and Swedish documentarian Marie Nyrerod discuss with Bergman his many triumphs and challenges: how he became, at age 26, Sweden's youngest theatrical director; how his career grew through successively larger theater companies; and how his leapfrogging between the stage and the studio culminated with the release of Fanny and Alexander, after which he focused on dramatic works and television. Includes numerous archival clips and rarely viewed behind-the-scenes material.
