well i dunno when the hell did i start "liking" bergman's movies ..the point is that by the time i was into his movies i spot this article on paper claiming that "at 89,bergman is no more."well so much for a man who made movies darker ,deeper and more mystifying than any director i am aware of ..well on a lighter note the first movie of this swedish chap i saw was "the seventh seal "at my college auditorium surrounded by a couple of ppl so messed up with their lives that we actually didn't end up caring what happened in the already screwed up life of a templar knight.
But i was fortunate enough to catch the movie again to appreciate the magnificence of the concept and its profound representation ..If anyone can actually bring out death,destruction and the horrendous trapped ,existentialist mode of the human race -bergman is someone to watch out for .Moreover generally all movies on crusades end up glorifying the cause of the fighting soldiers and knights ..but this movie brings out the futility of it all ,something that the human race felt after considerably destroying itself in the world wars.
so every person out there who cherishes movies at its best -DO HAVE A DOSE OF BERGMAN...a helluva creative man who "at 89,is no more" yet his legacy of "movies with a message" lives on .
p.s:go for "the seventh seal","crisis" and "secrets of women"...and moreover if u r suffering from depression and suicidal impulses only go for the last one ...dont endanger ur lives with the former movies .{:)}
