what a beautiful human being filled with complexion, beauty, and vulnerability. He embraced the realm of suffering, thus portraying a sense of purity to the world through his films.
I think Persona is a great movie, very intriguing. The more I read and see about Ingmar Bergman the more I value him. Together with Antonioni my favorite film maker.
@@ed1rko17 That was François Truffaut. The filmmakers Bergman hated were Robert Bresson and Jean Luc Godard, saying that Godard's Masculine Feminine was boring and that Bresson's Au Hassard Balthazar was painfully uninteresting. I like all of them though, although I have to say I prefer Bresson than Bergman wich is interesting because Andrei Tarkovsky's two favorite filmmakers of all time were Bresson and Bergman.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 I was right actually, Bergman wasn't a fan of Antonioni. Here's what he said: "Michelangelo Antonioni, thought Bergman, had “never properly learnt his craft. He’s an aesthete. If, for example, he needs a certain kind of road for The Red Desert, then he gets the houses repainted on the damned street. That is the attitude of an aesthete. He took great care over a single shot, but didn’t understand that a film is a rhythmic stream of images, a living, moving process; for him, on the contrary, it was such a shot, then another shot, then yet another. So, sure, there are some brilliant bits in his films… [but] I can’t understand why Antonioni is held in such high esteem.”"
I think that after watching Persona I got a feeling that I'm contemplating myself from the outside. As if my soul had separated from my body and was noticing all my slightest actions and thoughts. That was my second initiation into the world of cinema, the distance between these two initiations is around 26 years. I watched many movies all these years - good, bad, excellent...But this was a mind blowing experience when the doors of perception opened once more. My first initiation was achieved after smoking pot. The second time I was completely sober, so after all these years I got a fresh feeling of magic made by dancing shadows on the wall. Bergman was a medium, I suppose, though on the surface it may seem like he is very verbal. But there's something between the lines... My acquaintance with him started also around 26 years ago, I watched Sawdust and Tinsel and Seventh Seal, and then up to recent moment he was on my "movies to watch before death" list. Bergman and Death, ha-ha! Then I came across him in Tarkovsky's lectures on cinematography, and because I was very interested in Tarkovsky's choice of movie directors and I remembered from my first encounter with Bergman that his films are worth watching, and because I've got some spare time and realized that I'm totally psychically tired and unable to do anything, I opened my list of films and after watching a few Bergman's time came. Well, his films fixed my broken rhythm of life and long awaited inspiration returned. To day, I've watched many of his films and I regret that not much left...Sorry, I may sound as a young girl first time in love but that;s what Bergman have done with me.
I think this is Bergman's best film, a masterpiece. If you know Bergman, Persona can be seen as a refinement and furtherance of The Silence. You have to see Persona more than once..
@@m.c.b.4323 Yeah, that's the one thing I don't like about him, in some aspects it seems as though he only casted the girls he was banging at the time. He had a relationship with Harriet Anderson aroun Summer of Monika, then he forgot about her once he started a relationship with Bibi Anderson, that didn't work, and after Persona he casted Liv Ullman in all of his films. I don't know, it wasn't strictly like that, but it felt as such. Still a great filmmaker all in all

Try Andrei tarkovsky
Actually they died on the exact same day.
Funny because didn't Bergman say that Antonioni is a boring film maker? lol

One of the best films of all times without a doubt
I think Persona can't be explained, even its maker failed to explain. This is his best, a top psychological movie.

Beautiful.
Attractive, charming. Genius.

Yep, I've seen 5 of his films and Persona is by far my favourite.
That's cheered me up.When I don't exist, I'm gonna be happier!
Persona is one of the greatest artistic achievements. I enjoyed this interview. I can never get enough Bergman wisdom.
great psychologist filmmaker
Really enjoyed the film. Beautiful
How can ''you'' have the feeling of non existing? Only shows that the memory still captured that moment.
100 years today
I can sympathize, the mind is a train that can only wreck itself
And this man had 9 (nine) children.
His several wives, you mean. He just had sex with them.
bingo

Persona is similar to a good Bob Dylan song. Near impossible to explain but you know what it is some how. More of a feeling than explanation
Ingmar is describing about his marvellous feeling. He is not talking on Persona, the film.
He made some of the most depressing films ever. I read on his autobiography that he consider suicide at a very younger age. Fuck I don't blame him
Hide. Until when?
I'm considering It too but only becouse if my chronic pain

So the guy was high when he made this, not really surprising... I sink dis excisting should not be excisting. Morphine is one hellova drug!
lol it’s funny how he’s just explaining how awesome heroin is
What the hack are you talking about?...
It's a good thing that his filmmaking skills were better than his english. My God, my grandmother's dead cat spoke better english.
very insightful
How's your Swedish?
Wow... you're an asshole
How's your Swedish? Such a racist comment.
Ritayan Sarkar commenting on someone’s ability to speak a language is in no way racist
God, his english is awful!!!!!! And I'm swedish myself
It's actually very good. The accent is irrelevant.
So what?
His English is fantastic. He delivered every idea well.
I understood it well.
And you are??
