Images: My Life in Film
Images: My Life in Film | Ingmar Bergman
3 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Ingmar Bergman's career spanned forty years as he produced more than fifty films, many of which are considered classics. When he began this book, Bergman had not seen most of his movies since he made them. Resorting to scripts and working notebooks, and especially to memory, he comments, brilliantly and always cogently, on his failures as well as his successes; on the themes that bind his work together; on the relationship between his life and art. More clearly than ever before, "Images" allows us to listen to, as Woody Allen put it, Bergman's "voice of genius."

'My present conviction manifested itself during this time [the creation of The Seventh Seal]. I believe a human being carries his or her own holiness, which lies within the realm of the earth; there are no otherworldly explanations. So in the film lives a remnant of my honest, childish piety lying peacefully alongside a harsh and rational perception of reality.'
