Episode 172: Ingmar Bergman Part III

Director's Club

Brad and Al of the Director's Club finish things off as hosts with The Final Chapter of the Bergman 101, where we look at all of the efforts of Ingmar Bergman that made it to a movie screen. Even considering his earlier landmark films, Bergman's scope is wider here than ever: touching on theater, television, the opera, and even Hollywood (in "The Touch"), from period piece noirs abroad to documentaries of his island home, and an epic named "Fanny & Alexander" that just may encompass them all. Long live directors and the clubs to talk about them!

Outro: It was usually Rufus Thomas' "Let My Baby Ride" (played as the "L'Enteracte" in Leos Carax's amazing film "Holy Motors"), but here it's a song called "There's a Last Time For Everything", by the Division of Laura Lee.
