Leave your thoughts about Autumn Sonata.
| The SpectatorTed Whitehead[Bergman's] self conscious, immensely grave direction suggests some statement about the meaning of life and all that. It is all exquisitely tedious. |
| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanA stunningly accomplished chamber drama from Ingmar Bergman. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeThis is not a comfortable movie, but it isn't meant to be. It's a difficult work, but that very difficulty is what makes it rewarding. |
| Nick's Flick PicksNick Davis[It] absolutely overwhelms our senses and becomes for 92 minutes the only reality we can know. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendrickhas a steady, accumulating power, and while it ranks high among Bergman's dramas, it is not quite a masterpiece, at least not on the level of Cries and Whispers (1972) and Scenes From a Marriage (1973), his signature films of the period. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThis very good Ingrid and Ingmar Bergman film is very easy to love for its honesty and passion ... |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatProbes in an intelligent and affecting way the ambivalent feelings in mother-daughter relationships |
| Filmcritic.comMark AthitakisThough Ingrid and Ingmar Bergman aren't related, their pairing on a movie set was a long-anticipated event |
| Time OutPaul TaylorOf course Bergman's actresses suffer superbly in microscopic close-up, but the nagging doubt persists as to whether this is incisive psychodrama or just those old nordic blues again. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrThe movie makes good chamber music: it's a crafted miniature with Bergman's usual bombast built, for once, into the plot requirements. |
