9/10
One of Bergman's best for sure

Ingmar Bergman needs no introduction at all, being one of the, if not the best, director of all time. His filmography is ever impressive, ever memorable and ever revolutionary.

The 50 is indeed the decade Bergman is said to have been most productive, and arguably at his peak - though this gem is sometimes overlooked, which is a bit of a shame. It is indeed one of his best features, I would certainly say.

The actors all do an incredible job, as one would expect from such great names, and it is truly a career defining affair. The script accompining it is incredible, a good mix of drama, and some very clever humour, some darker shade to it as well. All around exquisitly well written and acted.

The cinematography, cutting and editing is stellar, in true Bergman fashion. The master always does wonders, as one would know. Truly amazing indeed. Very beautifully put together.

Overall, as always with Bermgan, indeed a very recommended film!
