Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A stunning and complex final bow from a stunning and complex artist.
– Eleanor Ringel Gillespie,

fresh:
For those inclined to search for psychological twists, the film offers plenty of Freudian situations capable of provoking lengthy discussions. For the film buff, the discussions will turn to a Bergman still at the peak of his craft.

The performances -- welling, unified and multidimensional -- are beyond praise, as are Bergman's visual images.

While bringing an abundance of inspiration to this world, Bergman unapologetically refused to ignore the pain and darkness that infects mankind. There will never be another filmmaker like him.

fresh:
With Saraband, the great writer-director has stepped back into the ring for one last epic wrestle with his demons. There is, as always, no easy outcome. But no one ever fought for higher emotional and spiritual stakes.
