Leave your thoughts about Bergman: A Year in a Life.
| Times (UK)Ed PottonMagnusson captures the humanity, wit and contradictions of a man who, like Leonard Cohen, is too often dismissed as a gloom-monger. |
| Backseat MafiaRob AldamUsing a wealth of previously unseen footage it paints a more holistic picture of a troubled and flawed magician. |
| Financial TimesNigel AndrewsMuch of this film's footage is previously unseen: including a first showing for a television interview with Ingmar's brother, kept off the screen at the time by Ingmar. |
| CineVueAlasdair BaymanUnveiling personality traits previously unknown, alongside footage that's captivating to observe, this lovingly constructed documentary will leave you with a fresh appetite to revisit Bergman's filmography in as much detail as presented throughout. |
| Cinemanía (Spain)Javier CortijoThe portrait, rather kaleidoscope, that [director Jane] Magnusson achieves is as fascinating as the photographic model itself. [Full review in Spanish] |
| El Pais (Spain)Javier OcañaA brilliant legacy of sensibility, purity, transcendence and aesthetic that is much more understood after seeing the complex portrait of the man. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| Empire MagazineDavid ParkinsonRegardless of the skittish structure and illegible subtitles, this is a valuable reflection on an incalculably influential career, which serves as a timely reminder about the pitfalls of artistic tyranny. |
| Sunday Times (UK)Edward PorterThere are lots of useful nuggets, not least in the firm but fair coverage of Bergman's less attractive traits. |
| User Reviewjan sI'd give it a hundred stars if I could. Captures his essence - wonderful film. |
| User ReviewDaniel Ggrande doc sobre o maior diretor de todos <3 |
