Although I can’t imagine opting to watch the theatrical cut nowadays when you can easily get ahold of the FAR superior full length television miniseries.
I`m sorry if this is a stupid question, but why is everyone referring to this as a movie? Isn't it a mini series which was just later got a cut as a film?
@@bastilohh The original draft was quite long (over 300 minutes), so it was first cut and released as a 188-minute film, and only later was the full draft separated into episodes and shown in Sweden as a miniseries. For many years the film cut was the only way to watch it in America, and so that is all many people know.
impeccably deserving of this award, "Fanny & Alexander" should have been recognized in the Best Picture category as well. Foreign language films have been nominated and this one should have been one of them
In order to be nominated for Best Picture, a film has to comply with the Academy's rules governing release of said film within Los Angeles within a specific time period. This film did not qualify.
RAHbert503 Fanny and Alexander did qualify for Best Picture as far as exhibition requirements are concerned; otherwise, it would not have earned the nominations and wins it did. You are right, however, that it was not eligible for Best Picture. During this period, foreign language films submitted for Best Foreign Film were ineligible for Best Picture nominations.
bergman desrvers.. his movies was wonderful its not about a family its about something touch all of us love Cruelty questions about Existentialism..etc
3:40 That black book of yours wouldn't happen to have the names Black & Dekker by any chance would it? ...Oh, no reason, I only ask because that janitor in the background seems to have something to add.
Actually it was not about the complications of family life; it was about toxic religiosity...and it's destructive role in family life too. I am not an atheist, and I find this film to be a very brave move on the role of religion when it goes against what we today seem to have forgotten the value of: The Human Rights Declaration. Yes, therein one is given the right to religious practice - but what when the religious practice violates the rest of the Human Rights mentioned in the same document? We are allowed to express our justifiable concerns today - but JUST where it comes to two religions; Judaism (very much so criticised ao in the UN), and Christianity. About time this RIGHT to put a critical light is extended to all religions, and their practices where they infringe national jurisprudence and legislation.

One of the greatest films ever made. The best by Bergman, with a magical quality..
My number one of all time. A master's masterpiece.
Best movie to ever win in this category, but more deserving of Best Picture than any nominee that year.
yes but then again the oscars are a joke so who cares
8 1/2?
@@brandocervera3854 Don't be too idiot. You watched this video, then said "who care about the Oscar." WTF?
Although I can’t imagine opting to watch the theatrical cut nowadays when you can easily get ahold of the FAR superior full length television miniseries.
And win best picture
Jörn Donner, the producer accepting the award has died today at 86. The only Finnish Oscar winner. Rest in peace.
Yet!
Fanny and Alexander is one of the best three movies of all time imo

Maybe the tv version yes

Holy shit did your comment age like wine.
"Parasite is the best foreign film ever made!"
F&A: Hold my Beer.
I really, really, really want to see F&A. But I kind of want to start with Bergman’s earlier works first.
@@mackielunkey2205 That's definitely a good idea. I recommend starting off with Wild Strawberries.
8 1/2: hold my beer
@@carlramos9445 8 1/2 is my favorite film ever made. It’s so fucking good.
Who said Parasite is the best foregin language movie? Life is beautiful, Seven Samurai, City of God say hi.
one of the best movies ever made
Every line of dialogue in this movie can go through your bowels and burn them
One of the 10 best films ever. Bergman is a master
This movie is wonderful
One of my favorite Swedish movies
One of my favorite Swedish films ever!
Bergman is the Man!
RIP Ingmar Bergman (July 14, 1918 - July 30, 2007), aged 89
You will be remembered as a legend.
And the winner is...Sweden! Well done, Sweden.
Nice to know Ingmar Bergman is an Oscar winner.
This year should've called the year of Bergman
bergman desrvers.. his movies was wonderful its not about a family its about something touch all of us love Cruelty questions about Existentialism..etc
Bergman is the king in Movie History.
Go Sweden
I remember seeing the TV version of Fanny and Alexander in film school; for as long as it was, it still is an impressive film...
of all American people, only 2 have seen Fanny and Alexander
It should have been nominated for best picture that year as well
But it wasn’t as common then as it is now
'Jörkka' did pretty much ok, given that this was the only Finnish touch of AA ever.
R.I.P. Jörn Donner.
Ingmar Bergman N1
Película escenario
John Gavin looks still hot and handsome in his 50s as well!
RIP Jörn Donner
"Thank you the academy for having such good taste". We the swedes are not famous for being so cocky😄
Jörn Donner was Finnish, though ;)
Jörn Donner is from Finland.
Jörn Donner 1933-2020.

The man who was almost Bond. John Gavin was cast in DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER, until Connery decided to return. Gavin did receive his full salary however.
Best of Bergman
John Gavin was a hunk!
I hope Sweden wins again
tavallinen jörn donner ...
Vittu se on viilee äijä! Cool cat!
Carmen is a masterpiece
I wish Job's Revolt had won. So heartbreaking. I'm biased, though, because I'm Hungarian.
3:40 That black book of yours wouldn't happen to have the names Black & Dekker by any chance would it? ...Oh, no reason, I only ask because that janitor in the background seems to have something to add.
It was the year of the Los Angeles Games.

Me too! :)
I'm proud to be swedish!
Are ordinary, not cinephile, Swedish people aware of Bergman and his greatness?
You’re proud for someone else’s accomplishment? Wow okay
Perkele!
No one believe that I was Alexander at eight+ in 1968.
Great but it should have won the best picture
How was ‘Sugar Cane Alley’ not even nominated?
Too bad that neither Jarl Kulle or Jan Malmsjö were nominated for the best actor award.
The producers....
parhaat elokuvat tehdään muuten nykyään suomessa, ja ruotsissa on sitten bergman tietysti
Jörn Donner in not a swedish, he is a finnish.
+Rauno Etelävuori Ethnically he is Swedish.
+Ze8us Ethnically? Jörn Donner was born 3.2.1933 in Helsinki. Finland.
So? Are you implying a dog born in a stable is a horse?
+Ze8us Heh.. very funny...

Це достойний фільм.
Saiko Jörn itselleen mitään Oscar patsasta?
Sai pitää tuon hakemansa kun se ei Bergmania kiinnostanut.
This guy must be drunk! ;D
Nah, that's just how "Jörkka" rolls.
He´s ironic.
Maksapihvi That's true, typical Jörn Donner!
He just speaks typical rally English - so classy
He drank everyday. Drink of that day was whiskey.
Lincoln

Jörn Donner was drunk as a skunk.
In that case, he has been drunk every time I saw him on (Swedish) television, since the early 1970s.
@@herrbonk3635 He has said that he drank everyday. That day he was lifting the spirits with whiskey.
The fuck he was.

Should have won Best Picture and Director. Terms of Endearment sucked
Oppenheimer

Damn, this was a really outstanding drama, a real movie, not that today's sjw pseudo-social oscar-winning garbage.
Can we appreciate the movie without adding things that have nothing to do with it like politics?
It's not like amazing films aren't made today.
