Does anyone know this - in an interview with Bergman I recall him talking about a game he plaid as a child - he tried to say his first name again and again over and over .... and found that the name after that had lost it's function/meaning? I guess I saw this on Danish television a log time ago...
I would love to be directed to a copy of this interview or a reference... please!!

Has Bergman actually said he that he's working on a Scenes from a Marriage sequel? Is there a source to go to? The only indication I've seen is in IMDB, but that entry has disappeared, then reappeared with the release date changed, etc.
Bergman's now 84, so if he's going to do the film, it would behoove him to start working on it in earnest. 209.149.235.254 00:22, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)
A bit of confusion here: The Magic Flute redirects to Die Zauberflöte which is the main article about the opera. Shouldn't Bergman's adaptation have its own article at, say, The Magic Flute (film)? Die Zauberflöte currently links to it as Trollflöjten. Bo Lindbergh 13:35, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
In the Bergman article, it states that: "...Scenes from a Marriage--a six-episode television feature--cost only $200,000" while the movie page says $150,000. Anyone know which figure is correct? I may be mistaken in imagining this as a contradiction because one describes cost and the other the amount the film was budgeted at. - SeanL.
Rumor has it Bergman is now a practicing Christian -- no longer an agnostic. Any sources on this? If true, should it be included? Qwerty18 06:07, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
If it's true, it should certainly be included, given how central existential crises are to many of his films. But the fact that nobody has stepped forward in the past year to corroborate it suggests that the rumor may be unfounded.
Does anyone object to my removing the English pronunciation of his name? I believe Wikipedia should encourage proper pronunciations, so the common, but incorrect English pronunciation should be removed leaving only the Swedish pronuncation. Carl.bunderson 17:54, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
It seems a little short for someone so reknowned and amazing as Bergman. Akseli 18:39, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I concur. Bergman clearly deserves a longer and more in-depth article than this, considering how highly regarded he is held in the world of cinema. Is it really appropriate to talk about his tax-evasion flap in the heading (which is already addressed later in the article)? Also: there should be a list of his films created (with links to corresponding wiki articles). Garagepunk66 ( talk) 07:22, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for pointing that out. I didin't see that they had one (and another editor said a similar thing in a post below). The filmography, where it resided, was so hard for the eye to notice. So, I switched it to come after the "Popular culture" secion. Before, it was in a place where people did not expect to see it. Now it is in a place where people do--where it belongs: after the text parts of the article in the lists sections. One extra benefit: it now appears reside in a more free-floating space (no longer looks "sandwiched") and is therefore more noticable. Perhaps we could but a graphic box around it to make it even more prominent. Garagepunk66 ( talk) 10:09, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

The HIV trial in Libya is pretty last week; I see no reason that it could not have been supplanted with news of Bergman's passing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.71.245.81 ( talk)
I agree that the charge of tax evasion was an important episode in Bergman's film career and the effects of these false charges can and should be mentioned. However the period was important for all aspects of Bergman's life and the specific details and sequence of events is not particularly relevant to his film career. So I would like to move the bulk of this section back into his biogrpahy section and leave behind a shorter section on how his effected his film making. A B Carter ( talk) 14:33, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
This sentence is elliptical: "Bergman dissolved Persona in 1974 after having been notified by the Swedish Central Bank and subsequently reported the income." Which income? What kind of notice did the bank give him? "Dear Mr. Bergman, we have learned that the police are onto you and advise you to begin reporting the income which we have been concealing on your behalf."
Bergman's extreme reaction to this incident seems to reveal a tortured psyche. The details of his psychological makeup are crucial to interpretation of his films. Have memorable films ever been made by people who were emotionally healthy, mature, happy, and uncomplicated? Steve Wise ( talk) 04:40, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

This would be over 90 films a year over his 60 active years. I find this number impossible to comprehend and IMDB lists 62 directed movies. Correction needed.
This has been going round and round for awhile now. As best as I can make out the facts are the following. Ingrid karlebo married Swedish count Jan-Carl von Rosen in 1953 and therefore became a countess. Ingmar Bergman had an affair with her while she was a countess but she later divorsed the count and married Ingmar Bergman in 1971. Jan-Carl von Rosen died in 1995. I'm no expert on royalty but I got to think that if you are a commoner and you divorce a count you don't get to keep the title. So Ingmar Bergman had an affair with a countess but married Ingrid Karlebo. Happy to be correct here. A B Carter ( talk) 17:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
In an op-ed piece in Svenska Dagbladet ("Bergman beundrade Hitler", debattartikel, SvD Brännpunkt, [1]) on August 12, 2007, journalist sv:Maria-Pia Boëthius complains that none of the post-death articles about Bergman have mentioned his admiration of Hitler. According to this piece: In 1945 Bergman interpreted photos from the death camps as propaganda by the allied forces. Only in 1946 did he realize they were not, and changed his mind, chocked, deeply regretting his earlier admiration of Hitler. Boëthius interviewed Bergman in 1999 for the 2nd edition of her book on World War II (Heder och samvete : Sverige och andra världskriget, hardbound, 1991, ISBN 91-1-894142-7; 2nd ed. 1999, hardbound, ISBN 91-7324-681-6; paperback in 2001, ISBN 91-7324-854-1; the book was translated to Norwegian in 1991, but never to other languages). An approved (by Bergman) interview was printed in the book. The full interview is in manuscript in her attic. The current article already has a reference to Laterna Magica. This op-ed piece should perhaps not be a source, but maybe Boëthius' book on WWII should? I have not read it, just this op-ed piece. -- LA2 05:08, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
You know, I removed the Recent Death tag a week after this gentleman died, and I was threatened by an admin with being blocked for doing so. I stated then, and repeat now, that the likelihood of anything changing in the information we have regarding a person's death "or circumstances" thereof (which is, after all, what the tag warns us of) is quite low even a few days after someone famous dies. There are exceptions, of course, but given the fact that there were absolutely no changes in the information about his death between my removal of this tag on 5 August and today, nearly three weeks after he died (which my observations show is pretty much standard for most deaths that use this tag), shows me that we need to consider our usage of this tag. Just because everyone is doing it doesn't make it a good idea. Unschool 01:39, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

An article ("essay") by journalist Anders Thunberg and history professor no:Tore Pryser (at Lillehammer University College, Norway) in Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter on November 15, 2007, reveals that Ingmar Bergman's lover (in the early 1940s), actress Karin Lannby (called "Maria" in Laterna Magica) was a secret agent, reporting extensively to the Swedish military secret service. She's apparently the role model for "Ruth Köhler" in the play "Kvinna utan ansikte". In the declassified archives of the Swedish military secret service (MUST, Militära underrättelsetjänsten), her reports are signed "Annette" but nothing reveals the true identity behind this signature. The two authors of this article have connected information they found in the archives of OSS (predecessor of CIA) and information found in the archives of the Swedish secret police (SÄPO, Säkerhetspolisen), to connect the codename Annette to acress Karin Lannby. Judging from the article, I would expect a forthcoming biography of sv:Karin Lannby. -- LA2 12:51, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I personally dislike this section, and think that if it must be here, it shouldn't just be a list of film directors with the ocassional quote following it. Would be interested in other opinions. For now, I'm going to remove any film-maker without a verifiable source as anyone can think that such-and-such was influenced by Bergman. Robsinden ( talk) 12:08, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
The article stated "While he denounced the critical classification of three of his films (Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light, and The Silence) as a predetermined trilogy ... this contradicts the introduction Bergman himself wrote in 1964". I don't agree with the wording "this contradicts" and have changed it to "this seems to contradict". I believe this is the more accurate wording because he says "they constitute a trilogy". "Constitute" implies that they work as a trilogy but it doesn't explicitly mean that he intended for them to be, or made them as, a trilogy, which is what he was refuting in his later statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AnalogWeapon ( talk • contribs) 20:32, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

There seem to be some confusion in the english version of this article. The current article states that he operated out of the Faroe Islands, Denmark. This is not correct, the correct location is Fårö, Sweden. This is where he lived and worked for over 40 years [1]. It is also incorrectly stated that:
My attempt to correct these mistakes was rejected as factual errors, even though the (pre-existing) cited sources clearly states Fårö, not the Faroe Islands. In fact, I've yet to find a single relation between Ingmar Bergman and the Faroe Islands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SinjonSmythe ( talk • contribs) 15:11, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
References
From the article: 'After Bergman left Sweden because of the tax evasion incident, he became director of the Residenz Theatre of Munich, Germany (1977–84).'
There is a wiki article on the Residenz Theatre with no mention of this:
'1972 to 1983 Kurt Meisel 1983 to 1986 Frank Baumbauer'
I look around and see, for example, this obituary:
'..he moved to Germany and worked as the director of the Munich Residenz Theater'.
https://www.dw.com/en/filmmaker-ingmar-bergman-dies-at-89/a-2712018
He is listed as 'director at Munich Residenzteater, 1977–82' here: https://www.encyclopedia.com/people/literature-and-arts/film-and-television-biographies/ingmar-bergman
Note this: '1976 January 30th: Arrest because of alleged tax evasion. April 21st: Bergman leaves Sweden and goes into voluntary exile. September: Moves to Munich, where he works as a director at the Residenz Theater.'
I think maybe say that he 'directed regularly at the Residenztheater in Munich in the '70s and '80s'.
My point would be just to clarify that Bergman was not the chief creative officer responsible for the artistic vision of this company. DanLanglois ( talk) 10:30, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

I think we have too many films listed in the lede. How about we reduce this list to, say, three films? How about Seventh Seal, Persona, and Fanny and Alexander? Looking around I see that some directors' articles list no films in the lede, some one or two. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Cheers! Doctormatt ( talk) 18:18, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
Hello! People keep adding films to the "selected work" portion of the Filmography section. It is no longer clear (perhaps it never was) what films should be in this "selected" list. I suggest we simply remove the "selected work" list entirely; people can follow the link to the complete, separate filmography article. What do others think? Cheers!

I feel it should list Filmmaker, Theatre Director, and Writer instead of just Filmmaker in the opening as context is critical to the remainder of the entry and who he is. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 18:22, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
I'd agree but the entry also makes mention of his career in theatre and as a writer. This context is lost with only filmmaker in the opening line. So let's see what a mod says but I think it needs to give context as it doesn't transition well without it. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 20:10, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
Thank you indeed. The thing too is he's a noted author and theatre director in Sweden and Germany. So he's not only known for his filmmaking. So I feel it's important to clarify to tell that story and part of his life as it helps people learn more about him beyond just film. Full context is key to these things and without that context it gets lost. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 01:15, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

An article ("essay") by journalist Anders Thunberg and history professor no:Tore Pryser (at Lillehammer University College, Norway) in Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter on November 15, 2007, reveals that Ingmar Bergman's lover (in the early 1940s), actress Karin Lannby (called "Maria" in Laterna Magica) was a secret agent, reporting extensively to the Swedish military secret service. She's apparently the role model for "Ruth Köhler" in the play "Kvinna utan ansikte". In the declassified archives of the Swedish military secret service (MUST, Militära underrättelsetjänsten), her reports are signed "Annette" but nothing reveals the true identity behind this signature. The two authors of this article have connected information they found in the archives of OSS (predecessor of CIA) and information found in the archives of the Swedish secret police (SÄPO, Säkerhetspolisen), to connect the codename Annette to acress Karin Lannby. Judging from the article, I would expect a forthcoming biography of sv:Karin Lannby. -- LA2 12:51, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I personally dislike this section, and think that if it must be here, it shouldn't just be a list of film directors with the ocassional quote following it. Would be interested in other opinions. For now, I'm going to remove any film-maker without a verifiable source as anyone can think that such-and-such was influenced by Bergman. Robsinden ( talk) 12:08, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
The article stated "While he denounced the critical classification of three of his films (Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light, and The Silence) as a predetermined trilogy ... this contradicts the introduction Bergman himself wrote in 1964". I don't agree with the wording "this contradicts" and have changed it to "this seems to contradict". I believe this is the more accurate wording because he says "they constitute a trilogy". "Constitute" implies that they work as a trilogy but it doesn't explicitly mean that he intended for them to be, or made them as, a trilogy, which is what he was refuting in his later statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AnalogWeapon ( talk • contribs) 20:32, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

I think it should be noted that Bergman was a recipient of the Goethe Prize in 1976. Here is a reference (official website of Frankfurt). Anyone want to add this in? I'm not so sure how I should go about it. Indigochild 02:55, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

"In 1966, he directed Persona ... Other notable films of the period include The Virgin Spring (Jungfrukällan, 1960).."
Shouldn't The Virgin Spring, however notable, be included in an earlier sentence, being considerably earlier than the 1966–1969 films? Harfarhs ( talk) 17:53, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

There seem to be some confusion in the english version of this article. The current article states that he operated out of the Faroe Islands, Denmark. This is not correct, the correct location is Fårö, Sweden. This is where he lived and worked for over 40 years [1]. It is also incorrectly stated that:
My attempt to correct these mistakes was rejected as factual errors, even though the (pre-existing) cited sources clearly states Fårö, not the Faroe Islands. In fact, I've yet to find a single relation between Ingmar Bergman and the Faroe Islands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SinjonSmythe ( talk • contribs) 15:11, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
References
From the article: 'After Bergman left Sweden because of the tax evasion incident, he became director of the Residenz Theatre of Munich, Germany (1977–84).'
There is a wiki article on the Residenz Theatre with no mention of this:
'1972 to 1983 Kurt Meisel 1983 to 1986 Frank Baumbauer'
I look around and see, for example, this obituary:
'..he moved to Germany and worked as the director of the Munich Residenz Theater'.
https://www.dw.com/en/filmmaker-ingmar-bergman-dies-at-89/a-2712018
He is listed as 'director at Munich Residenzteater, 1977–82' here: https://www.encyclopedia.com/people/literature-and-arts/film-and-television-biographies/ingmar-bergman
Note this: '1976 January 30th: Arrest because of alleged tax evasion. April 21st: Bergman leaves Sweden and goes into voluntary exile. September: Moves to Munich, where he works as a director at the Residenz Theater.'
I think maybe say that he 'directed regularly at the Residenztheater in Munich in the '70s and '80s'.
My point would be just to clarify that Bergman was not the chief creative officer responsible for the artistic vision of this company. DanLanglois ( talk) 10:30, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

I think we have too many films listed in the lede. How about we reduce this list to, say, three films? How about Seventh Seal, Persona, and Fanny and Alexander? Looking around I see that some directors' articles list no films in the lede, some one or two. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Cheers! Doctormatt ( talk) 18:18, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
Hello! People keep adding films to the "selected work" portion of the Filmography section. It is no longer clear (perhaps it never was) what films should be in this "selected" list. I suggest we simply remove the "selected work" list entirely; people can follow the link to the complete, separate filmography article. What do others think? Cheers! Doctormatt ( talk) 23:47, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
I feel it should list Filmmaker, Theatre Director, and Writer instead of just Filmmaker in the opening as context is critical to the remainder of the entry and who he is. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 18:22, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
I'd agree but the entry also makes mention of his career in theatre and as a writer. This context is lost with only filmmaker in the opening line. So let's see what a mod says but I think it needs to give context as it doesn't transition well without it. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 20:10, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
Thank you indeed. The thing too is he's a noted author and theatre director in Sweden and Germany. So he's not only known for his filmmaking. So I feel it's important to clarify to tell that story and part of his life as it helps people learn more about him beyond just film. Full context is key to these things and without that context it gets lost. Joe12Hawk ( talk) 01:15, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
