Great Directors: Ingmar Bergman
In the words of Woody Allen: "probably the greatest film artist, all things considered, since the invention of the motion picture camera." Films DIRECTED by Ingmar Bergman. I chose that I enter only the films directed and not include the films only written by Bergman because for me direction is what brings the script to life, what gives the movie magic.
