DVD: Bibi Andersson     DVD:     Bibi Andersson      Persona Bibi Andersson, Liv Ullmann MGM (Video & DVD), 2004 Persona: One of the great contributions to film. As a student of film for some ten years, I've seen over 40 of Bergman's films. Of them, Persona is one of about 4 out of something like 50 that stand out as absolutely crucial in the development of film. There might not be the ostensible progress in film, and ...             The Lost Prince Daniel Williams (IV), Matthew Thomas BBC Warner, 2004 A Prince of Valor and a Nanny of Honor I loved this film. The depiction of the young Prince John was historically as well as clinically accurate. He was an epilectic child and certainly showed signs of genuine Aspergers Syndrome. The touching relationship between the prince and his beloved Nanny Lalla Bill ...             Scenes From a Marriage - Criterion Collection Liv Ullmann, Erland Josephson Criterion, 2004 Best film ever about marriage? Quite possibly This has got to be one of the most realistic, honest, truthful and incisive studies of human relationships ever commited to film. Ingmar Bergman really makes his case here that all you need for a movie are skilled actors and an interesting script. This has got to be ...             Smiles Of A Summer Night - Criterion Collection Ulla Jacobsson, Eva Dahlbeck Criterion, 2004 Laughter can save lives This is a classic comedy where the humor was derived out of neccesity. In 1955, writer/director Ingmar Bergman had reached rock bottom. Clinically depressed, he said he either had to kill himself or write a comedy. Luckily for us he ended up writing Smiles of a ...             The Ingmar Bergman Special Edition DVD Collection (Persona / Shame / Hour of the Wolf / The Passion of Anna / ... Bibi Andersson, Gunnar Björnstrand MGM, 2004 MGM gets it right After much confusion, the long-awaited Bergman set has finally come out. You can disregard all the negative comments you may have read about faked aspect ratios, etc. Yes, MGM tried to pull a fast one on a couple of the titles in this box, but after being caught out, ...             Airport Terminal Pack (Airport/Airport '75/Airport '77/Airport '79 - The Concord) Alain Delon, Susan Blakely Universal Studios, 2004 3 out of 4 - Classics. They shouldn't have made the 1979 one; the other 3 are staples of the 70's disaster film era, all of which are fabulously cast, scored, and executed.             The Seventh Seal - Criterion Collection Gunnar Björnstrand, Bengt Ekerot Criterion, 1999 A powerful and melancholy film At nearly 180 reviews, there might not be much I can add about this legendary masterpiece. Probably Bergman's most famous film, it has inspired numerous copycats as well as satires, and after watching it for the first time, I can see why. This isn't the Middle Ages ...             Babette's Feast Stéphane Audran, Birgitte Federspiel MGM (Video & DVD), 2001 Excellent Film on the Issue of Grace I bought this to support a study on "Grace" that I was doing at our church. It clearly shows the power and cost of grace. Recommend to anyone searching for a deeper understanding of grace and how it relates to God gift.             Wild Strawberries - Criterion Collection Victor Sjöström, Bibi Andersson Criterion, 2002 Journey into past This is a film about loneliness, regrets, disappointments, self-discovery, existential anxiety, forgiveness, redemption, our vulnerabilities and failures as human beings, and the acceptance of the world as it is. It reaffirmed my belief that Aristotle was right when ...             Duel at Diablo Armand Alzamora, Bibi Andersson MGM (Video & DVD), 2003 Excellent Western that passed the test of time I grew up watching westerns on VHS, but I felt I had out grown them when I reached High School. The few I still liked were either more modern or ones that I had seen at just the right age for me to accept them as part of the natural order of things and that was that ...             All These Women [PAL Import] Bibi Andersson, Harriet Andersson All These Women Did Not Save It I never thought that I would have to say that but I did not like the Ingmar Bergman's film "All These Women". In spite the very pretty and delicate pink and blue cinematography and the presence of the charming and talented actresses, the movie was a mess of an attempt ...             Light Keeps Me Company Julia Roberts, Rikard Wolff First Run Features, 2002 A window on one of the greatest cinematographers ever Great documentary on one of the great visionaries of 20th Century cinema. Highly recommended. If you like it, don't miss the short documentary "The World of Kazuo Miyagawa" which is included on the wonderful Criterion DVD of Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon. They are both ...             I Never Promised You a Rose Garden Kathleen Quinlan, Bibi Andersson New Concorde, 2001 The Film of The Book Based on the cult book of the same name, this true story manages to capture and convey the atmosphere of the book, and the remarkable relationship bewteen Debbie, a young girl suffering from schizophrenia, living in a world peopled by gods of her own creation, and her ...             Persona Bibi Andersson, Liv Ullmann Persona: One of the great contributions to film.

This film however would make a great companion to "8 1/2". It has the same strangeness. ...          products you might be interested in   search for DVDs collection, criterion, marriage, promised, strawberries, terminal we recommend A powerful and melancholy film randomly chosen book: Nazemnaya otrabotka kosmicheskikh apparatov
