Ingmar Bergman prevalently known for his movie ‘Persona’ was considered as the most thoroughgoing in procedure and technique. Classism in the movies came out vociferously in Bergman’s movies. His movie “Persona” shut down every experimentalist of the 60’s era who thought of him as the very conventional creatively and ethically. He outshined all of them.

Woody Allen the famous, praised Bergman and quoted, “probably the greatest film artist, all things considered, since the invention of the motion picture camera” – but wasn’t he also misinterpreted? It’s now been 10 years since Bergman’s death; whatever is known about his work still remains to be incomprehensible leaving the new spectators unpropitious. Shockingly, it was grief-stricken that when Ingmar Bergman considered the vicar of the European art and Michelangelo Antonioni Italian visionary were destined to be linked to death on the same day.

But Bergman’s articulacy in his films was often mistaken for casuistry. Whereas, his work continually draws the attention against to what he likely called “The restrictive control of the intellect”. For those who believed his films are ‘elite or influential’ chose not to believe that his work was cautious of authority whether it be priestly or political. His characters were deep-seated, in the securities of humanoid unity.

Bergman was always seen as the grim dramaturge, but his Smiles of a Summer Night is something we cannot repudiate of. All other comedies are uninteresting and vague. His work is displayed as contemptuous, irrefutable and cold-blooded. He criticizes the audiences’ lack of compassion and says its “empty but clever” satire.

Bergman’s films were obscure, films like “The Seventh Seal” and “Wild Strawberries” ware new creating relevance in the American audiences. The films unveiled matters that everyone else in Hollywood was reticent about such as death, sexuality, broken relationships and religious qualms. Everything from clear evident symbols to concentrated close-up shots and stagey lighting effects, that asserted the trickery and skill, were there in his films that Hollywood constantly had struggles hiding it.

Bergman interpreted adolescence uprising and often wasted efforts at appeasement.  The relation that Bergman shared was visibly intimidating. His father was a tyrant Lutheran pastor. In his film “Hour of the Wolf”, the relentless artist narrates all the physical and psychological chastisements that he went through as a child. “In Winter Light”, it is implied that the utmost agony of God was the ache of desertion by his father. The film is the second in a series of a theme related to the other films, following “Through a Glass Darkly” and followed by The Silence, which sometimes is also considered a trilogy.

“Face to Face” is allusion of a biblical chapter Corinthians 13, a praise to love. But Bergman’s understanding of Christianity is not compassionate but vague superstition, tormented confession and forceful obedience to a rancorous God. Neither does he think that the priests are the wardens of their flock, to whoever they seem disapproving to everything and lack compassion.

Bergman’s Christian dogma is not inspired by doctrine, about which it is undecided, but by responsiveness and morals such as mercy, humbleness, and kindness through virtuous actions. Long ago a critic mentioned, “Bergman was interested not in saving souls but in baring them”, but can only draft the idea of redemption in the portrayal of Christian love are the qualities of loyalty, sacredness and consecration.

Contrariwise Bergman considers God’s muteness as an indicator of oblivious and ignorant behavior. In Through a Glass Darkly, Karin’s suicidal father has an unshackling revelation: “I don’t know if love is proof of God’s existence, or if love is God himself… Suddenly the emptiness turns into abundance, and despair into life. It’s like a reprieve from a death sentence”

Bergman`s films are kind of self-absorption that can seem too pat and too suitable just like his characters, Bergman is conscious of himself and expresses himself determinedly. There always is a little anonymous or conjectural prospect left behind to the audience.
