Ingmar Bergman
Ernst Ingmar Bergman( 14 July 1918 – 30 July 2007) was a Swedish director, writer, and producer who worked in film, television, theatre and radio.
Considered to be among the most accomplished and influential filmmakers of all time, Bergman's films include" Smiles of a Summer Night"( 1955)," The Seventh Seal"( 1957)," Wild Strawberries"( 1957)," Persona"( 1966)," Cries and Whispers"( 1972)," Scenes from a Marriage"( 1973), and" Fanny and Alexander"( 1982); the last two exist in extended television versions.
Bergman directed over sixty films and documentaries for cinematic release and for television screenings, most of which he also wrote.
He also directed over 170 plays.
He eventually forged a creative partnership with his cinematographers Gunnar Fischer and Sven Nykvist.
Among his company of actors were Harriet and Bibi Andersson, Liv Ullmann, Gunnar Björnstrand, Erland Josephson, Ingrid Thulin and Max von Sydow.
Most of his films were set in Sweden, and many films from" Through a Glass Darkly"( 1961) onward were filmed on the island of Fårö.
Philip French referred to Bergman as" one of the greatest artists of the 20th century ... he found in literature and the performing arts a way of both recreating and questioning the human condition."
Director Martin Scorsese commented;
" If you were alive in the 50s and the 60s and of a certain age, a teenager on your way to becoming an adult, and you wanted to make movies, I do n't see how you could n't be influenced by Bergman ... It's impossible to overestimate the effect that those films had on people."

Hour of the Wolf
Hour of the Wolf is a 1968 Swedish psychological horror film directed by Ingmar Bergman and starring Max von Sydow and Liv Ullmann.
The story explores the disappearance of fictional painter Johan Borg( von Sydow), who lived on an island with his wife Alma( Ullmann) while plagued with frightening visions and insomnia.
Bergman originally conceived much of the story as part of an unproduced screenplay," The Cannibals", which he abandoned to make the 1966 film" Persona".
He took inspiration from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera" The Magic Flute" and E. T. A. Hoffmann's novella" The Golden Pot", as well as some of his own nightmares.
Principal photography took place at Hovs Hallar, Stockholm and Fårö.
Themes include insanity, particularly as experienced by an artist, sexuality, and relationships, conveyed in a surreal style and with elements of folklore.
Analysts have found allusions to vampire and werewolf legend.
Authors have also connected the work to Bergman's life and his relationship with Ullmann; Bergman said he was experiencing his own" hour of the wolf" when he conceived the story.
The film was initially met with negative reviews in Sweden.
In later years" Hour of the Wolf" received generally positive reviews and was ranked one of the 50 greatest films ever made in a 2012 directors' poll by the British Film Institute.
The film was followed by Bergman's thematically related films" Shame"( 1968) and" The Passion of Anna"( 1969).
Ullmann won awards in 1968 for her performances in both" Hour of the Wolf" and" Shame".
