## Resource

Episode 115 - Happy 2026! The first episode of the new year is our last Bergman discussion. This week we watch and discussed The Seventh Seal (1957) Arguably Bergman's most well-known film, the Seventh Seal follows a knight, his squire, a rag tag group of performers and others during the time of the black plague in Sweden. Those of you familiar with the film Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey might recognize the plot device of death playing a game for the life of the main character. Who borrowed from who? Tune in to find out. And tune in soon as we release our end of the year MRAC film club awards, where we reflect on the year past and all the films we watched. email us at mracfilmclub@gmail.com
