The three directors said to have dominated the world of film in the second half of the 20th century are Federico Fellini, Akira Kurosawa and Ingmar Bergman. From Smiles of a Summer Night to Cries and Whispers to The Seventh Seal, says an obituary on today’s New York Times website, “Bergman dealt with pain and torment, desire and religion, evil and love.” Ingmar Bergman died today at the age of 89.
