Summary

Episode 112 - Pack your bags because we are headed to 1940's-50's Sweden to cover the early films of Ignmar Bergman. Bergman is considered one of the most important directors in the history of cinema so clearly we are not qualified to comment, but we are doing it anyway. You will get our initial reactions to Bergman through the first film he wrote and directed; Prison (1949), as well as some supplemental talk about Thirst (1949). Both films comment on marriage, faith and human nature... which we in turn comment on. Join us for the... fun? and join us next week as we watch an discuss Wild Strawberries (1957) and Summer Interlude (1951) email us at [email protected]
