Ingmar Bergman is dead.I saw 'The Seventh Seal' again and bits of 'Through A Glass Darkly'.Cinema has lost one of it's most prized directors.Bergman's movies were nothing short of art.The witch-burning scene of The Seventh Seal can move the hardest of men for it's strength lies in the eyes of the child to be burnt.The concept of playing a game of Chess with Death lacks originality(It's a part of Nordic folklore),but in it's cinematic form is brilliant.
INGMAR BERGMAN R.I.P.
P.S. The oddest and perhaps the saddest thing(for movie buffs)...Michelangelo Antonioni died on the same day.
