Ingmar Bergman, 1960s (via NYT)
Yesterday we lost one of my favorite directors, Ingmar Bergman. My very first Bergman experience was watching Persona in high school and it had a profound effect on the development of my personal philosophy. He joined the ranks of the other 'greats' who have enormously influenced me: Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Nietzsche, Jung, Freud, Camus and Sartre. Some of my other favorite directors are Fellini, Godard and David Lynch, but Bergman alone has stimulated me in a philosophical way, transforming my vision of self and other. Another film I love is Fanny and Alexander, perhaps because like Bergman, I was raised by a strict Protestant minister. Fanny and Alexander is as much my poeticized autobiography as it was his.
Be sure to read Billy Mernit's post on Ingmar Bergman and Sven Nykvist. In addition, the New York Times gives a great synopsis of Bergman's outstanding contribution to cinema.
After a dandelion has bloomed, each of the individual flowers within a single dandelion forms a seed.
