It would be difficult to choose a favourite from among Ingrid's films, as she's one of the actresses whose work I admire most. It's always fascinating to see her being interviewed, especially by the great Dick Cavett, as she invariably comes off as at once straightforward and reserved. It's been widely written that her work was the most important thing in her life. As we see here, from her dogged professional pursuit of Ingmar Bergman, she constantly sought new challenges as an actress.
Wild Strawberries or Persona Gaslight or Notorious Every modern star who doesn’t have to indulge a brutal closeup in the HDTV era should add that fact to their gratitude journal.
Odd that you would say that when Ms. Bergman was essentially blacklisted and her movies boycotted for a decade for having an affair. Her career was nearly ruined by scandal.
That's unfortunate to hear, esp since they were both at the top of their game. But, artistic differences and personality conflicts, can generate great works. Given their level of talent, that appears to be the case.
Is that true? I remember seeing a documentary about the making of the movie, it´s 3.5 hours of behind the scenes video. I think it´s on TH-cam. I didn´t sense any animosity between them. But maybe there was when the camera wasn´t rolling.
It’s a little surprising that Ingmar would ever cast Ingrid. He had a repertory of wonderful female actors who had grown in their own careers with him, knew how his mind worked, liked to work in the kind of deeply serious films that he made, so why would he want to work with an outsider who had made a career elsewhere, talented and articulate though she is?
Why is Ingmar Bergman pushed upon some? His early work was fine - his later work became increasingly cryptic & indirect. Bergman is slightly rightly guided than Fellini but still is he worth it? Unsure. We can surely do better. I bet Ignmar Bergman would have been fine with the persecution of Ms. Ingrid Bergman for having a child out of wedlock.

She just was so beautiful, and completely natural.
Autumn Sonata was her best performance imo even though she won three Oscars for other roles.
Agree. She's always real good in whatever role, but Ingrid's performance in that one was her most impressive of all. Liv Ullman was terrific, too.
Ingrid B and Max von Sydow two Swedish legends.
She's a very admirable person. Even more so now that we know they actually hated each other's guts during the production of the Autumn Sonata.
She's awesome and she's one of my favorite
So humble' interesting beautiful intelligent was Ingrid.
I liked her performance in “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.””
Amazing woman ❤
Love her. 🇧🇷
Wild Strawberries or Persona
Gaslight or Notorious

I’ve just realized Isabella sounds exactly like her now
There's an old song by my favorite band New Order called "Cries And Whispers". I wonder if it's more than a coincidence?
I had actually thought Ingrid and Ingmar were related.
along with the other 400,000 Bergmans in Sweden?
Haha, nope.
Back when Hollywood had quality and class.
Odd that you would say that when Ms. Bergman was essentially blacklisted and her movies boycotted for a decade for having an affair. Her career was nearly ruined by scandal.
Bergman worked with Bergman in her last work.
Bergman and Bergman didn't get on at all. It was apparently an unhappy experience all round.

This interview does not indicate this doslike.

having children out of wedlock destroys societies, so - good, it should be a matter of persecution. as should a woman having 3 marriages.
