All of his pictures, including his comedies, deal seriously with faith, morality, and mortality, but audiences and critics too often neglect the extraordinary wit and vitality that can be found in \u003cem\u003eWild Strawberries\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eScenes from a Marriage\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eFanny and Alexander\u003c\/em\u003e, and many others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eIngmar Bergman: Interviews\u003c\/em\u003e, the director discusses various stages of his career and the many facets of his work. The man and his films are revealed to be funny, full of life, and surprising as well as thoughtful, complex, and profound. In interviews with important writers, critics, and filmmakers, including James Baldwin, Michiko Kakutani, John Simon, and Vilgot Sjöman, Bergman describes a grand vision that justifies his affinity with Shakespeare, Ibsen, and Dostoyevsky. The volume begins with a 1957 piece, conducted just as he completed his early masterpiece \u003cem\u003eThe Seventh Seal\u003c\/em\u003e, and ends in 2002, as he was preparing to direct \u003cem\u003eSaraband\u003c\/em\u003e, his latest film.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterviews with the famed director of Wild Strawberries, Scenes from a Marriage, The Seventh Seal, Saraband, and other films\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 204\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 8.99 x 6.33 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 01, 2007\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42714893582399,"sku":"9781578062188","price":64.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/47601e653bda941617761fe291513119.webp?v=1765069600","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/ingmar-bergman-interviews-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
