After a lifetime of flogging the demons of cosmic despair, Ingmar Bergman, at 88, comes off as lean and vigorous in this fascinating memoir-interview.

Intimate, compelling film.

An amazing portrait of the great filmmaker Ingmar Bergman in his later years.

Ingmar Bergman lays his soul on the line in Marie Nyreroed's gentle, intimate and thorough documentay.
50
As little more than an extended interview, it remains hobbled by determinedly uninspired cinematography and a mundane televisual setup.

A wonderful work of Bergman.
Cinema of the highest quality at the same time philosophical and human as few have managed to make, passing the silence of God as only masters can do.

This seems to be of completely different entities. There is no 'The Bergman Trilogy' as such. The Criterion Collection issued a trilogy of works originally released between 1961 and 1963 considered by many names, usually The Silence of God Trilogy, which the other user review seems to be about. However, the picture shown is of a documentary about and interview of the director taken shortly before his death, also released by The Criterion Collection, first on its own and then as a bonus supplement of a recent re-release of The Seventh Seal. The critic reviews seems to be of this and has nothing to do with the earlier Trilogy. This entire entry needs to be reworked.
