The Passion of Ingmar Bergman

The Passion of Ingmar Bergman

Gado Frank (Author)

Overview

Ingmar Bergman is recognized as a preeminent filmmaker, often writing his own screenplays, a practice that has led critics to label him a 'literary' filmmaker. This work delves into the breadth of Bergman's literary creations, exploring the connection between his stories, narratives, and personal history. While acknowledging the visual aspects of his films, the analysis concentrates on the underlying narrative structure. Gado posits that a fundamental psychic fantasy unites all of Bergman's works, revealing an artist who aspired to be a dramatist and viewed the camera as an extension of his writing.
