The Silence

Director/Writer: Ingmar Bergman
Cinematography: Sven Nykvist
Cast: Ingrid Thulin, Gunnel Lindblom, Jörgen Lindström
Year: 1963

Yes, Bergman never gets bad.
I would consider this film, sort of like an experiment, kind of surreal one.
After seeing lots of Bergman's films, I realised that his films often explore the relationship between females, whether they are sisters, friends, and mother/daughter. It's quite peculiar.
And this one is about sex, lust, desire, and emotional corruptions.
In the trilogy, the order would be:
Winter Light > The Silence > Through a Glass Darkly
They are all great nonetheless.

My Rating: 8/10
