Movie Reviews

Observer - 10/10 by Rex ReedA creature of impulse to the end, she was a woman who saved everything—from lace valentines and old passports to Oscars and tear-stained divorce papers. How lucky we are she can share them with us now. She marched to her own drummer, and the beat goes on.
The Arts Desk - 10/10 by Jasper ReesThe picture that emerges is of an emotional nomad with a fragile gift for joy, embodied in a smile that could bring down the walls of Jericho.
Groucho Reviews - 9/10 by Peter CanaveseBergman's effortlessly poetic diary and letters provide more evidence, though patently unnecessary, of her artistic temperament, her lyrical view of experience. [Criterion Blu-ray]
SF Weekly - 9/10 by Sherilyn ConnellyIt's in the little moments that Bergman shines, a woman unafraid to follow her own path in both word and deed.
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul - 9/10 by Michael NordineBjörkman's best quality as a documentarian is ultimately a double-edged sword: He's too content to let his subject do all the talking.
The Film Stage - 9/10 by Michael SnydelIt's a morass of individually satisfying ideas that fail to create a larger picture.
Q Network Film Desk - 9/10 by James KendrickThe best thing I can say about it is that I will never see Bergman-someone who I had thought was quite familiar at this point-the same way again.
The Playlist - 9/10 by Nick SchagerThe use of the actress’ own archival material in 'In Her Own Words' results in a tribute to both her titanic career, and to her belief in the movies’ capacity to safeguard the past, and to maintain it long after its makers are gone.
National Post - 9/10 by Chris KnightIt's difficult to encompass such a complicated life in less than two hours, but Björkman encapsulates it nicely.
Sunday Independent (Ireland) - 8/10 by Hilary A WhiteSuch sources and archive footage (much taken by Bergman on her trusty 16mm) lend this portrait valuable authenticity.
