    Bergman was without equal as a film artist. In terms of cinema art, he was Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, Mozart and Aristotle all rolled into one. He was a poet, playwright, novelist, philosopher. I can think of only Renoir, Kurosawa, and Tarkovsky as reaching close to Bergman's level as pure artists in the movies.

    Won the Thalberg BEFORE Cries and Whispers, Scenes from a Marriage, The Magic Flute, Autumn Sonata, From the Life of the Marionettes, Fanny and Alexander, and Saraband. Just those seven put a lot of other directors' entire life's work in the shade. Ingmar was a boss.

    El es un ejemplo, solo un genio, una persona comprometida con su trabajo, se queda trabajando en su casa que ir a recibir un premio. Estoy seguro que estaba haciendo el guion de "Gritos y susurros" por el año. Le salio perfecta y lo trajo de nuevo a los oscares, que mejor ejemplo que es el, no ir para trabajar en algp que pueda hacer que lo llevara de nuevo a donde no pudo, no cualquiera hace eso. Y lo logro. Bravo!!!

      All the greatest directors of all time hated the Oscars. They don't need them as a stamp of quality. It took nearly 40 years for Scorsese to win one. Doesn't mean Raging Bull or Goodfellas aren't masterpieces.

    When a Best Foreign Language Film wins the Academy Award,
    does it go to the producer(s) or the director(s)? If the
    latter, then certainly Ingmar Bergman won several of these awards,
    as lherman22 (commenter below) attests!

    • @denissweet6639
      @denissweet6639 8 років тому +8

      +Lisa Merle when a Best Foreign Language Film wins the Academy Award, it goes neither to the producer nor director. It goes to the country the film was from (and in the case of a film coming from multiple countries, they simple choose ONE country and then that country represents the film). So, for this reason, many of the great directors of all time were denied well deserved Oscars like Tati, Bergman, Fellini, Bunuel, Kurosawa, and I believe even Truffaut (although I could be wrong about that last one) since all these filmmakers directed films which one Best Foreign Language Film. I think the rule is silly and should be changed. How can you give an award to a country but not the individuals responsible for the film?
      There is one exception to the above: for 1956 (for reasons unknown to me) the Academy actually did give Oscars to individuals for the Best Foreign Film category (for that year only and then never again). That year's winner was La Strada but they didn't give the award to Fellini; they gave it to the film's producers Dino De Laurentiis and Carlo Ponti (the only two people EVER to actually win an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film). All other years, when a film wins in this category and someone goes up on stage to collect the prize, they are merely accepting the award on behave of their country but they themselves are not actually winning the award in their own name. Ingmar Bergman never personally won a competitive Academy Award (neither did Fellini, Kurosawa, Tati, Godard, Truffaut, and many, many others). To this day it continues: when Amour won Best Foreign Language Film, the award was presented to "Austria" and not Michael Haneke, the film's director (or anyone else associated with the film). Had the rules been different Bergman would have won, at least, one competitive Oscar because I know that "Through a Glass Darkly" won Best Foreign Language film for the 1961 Oscars: instead the award went to "Sweden" and not "Bergman".
      I think this whole situation is a shame. The category of Best Foreign Language film is the ONLY category at the Oscars which is not presented to an individual or individuals: everything from Best Animated Short to Best Visual Effects goes to people, real live people, who have their name written on the award and get to call themselves official "Academy Award Winners".
      Everything I've said above can be confirmed at the Academy's main website www.oscars.org and searching through either their current rules or their database. Here is a link to their official database awardsdatabase.oscars.org/ampas_awards/BasicSearchInput.jsp
      P.S. I absolutely love Bergman; I'm glad the Academy at least gave him this award. He deserved a lot more too. Oh well.

      Thank you, Denis, Appreciate the time you took to send this information, and the link & website info too! I really never knew this ~ all along, I figured it had to be the producer(s)/director. I s'pose my next question is: who exactly, in the winning nation, ultimately receives the award? Where is the final destination ~ e.g. library? museum? public/state building? I guess I'd better check this out! Seems mighty odd ~ you'd think the Oscar would go to those who actually made the film, wouldn't you? Thank you again for your thoughtful response! ~ Lisa

    • @denissweet6639
      @denissweet6639 8 років тому +2

      +Lisa Merle Thank you very much for your kind words. As for where the statuette itself ends up... I don't know. I've often wondered that myself. I would imagine that you'd have to track down each statuette individually to find out where they ended up, why they ended up there, and who made the decision to put it there. My guess would be that most Best Foreign Language Film Oscar statuettes wind up in the homes of directors and producers (despite the fact that it isn't officially "theirs") because no one actually takes it away from them after they accept it on behalf of their country. Otherwise, the trophies probably end up at a studio/production company office that puts them on display. However, libraries, museums, and public/state buildings are also good guesses and I would be surprised if many of them didn't end up there too. I've read a few books dedicated entirely on Academy Award history/culture and this issue has never been answered for me.
      At the end of the day, when the recipient of a physical prize is ambiguous (as in this case), where does the physical trophy itself end up? It probably changes in each case.
      I wish I could give you some sources for what I just said but since everything I said was just guessing I don't have any sources: just my imagination.

    I've just checked and I've seen 33 of Bergman's films and some of them are terrific, Scenes from a Marriage and Persona are my two favourites.
    But on the whole I still don't see what all the fuss is about.
    A distinctive and talented director, definitely. But a genius?
    Not in my opinion.
    Sorry.

    While I love his movies, Bergman is a coward and misogynist. Instead of refusing the Thalberg Award "on principle" he sends his muse/lover/employee to pick it up. To show the world
    that he won it, and to show the world that he turned it down.
    Moral dilettante. Master filmmaker though, and THAT I applaud.
