More than ten years ago, Ingmar Bergman
announced that the widely acclaimed Fanny and Alexander would mark his last
hurrah as a filmmaker. Although some critics had written him off as earnest but
ponderous, others were saddened by the departure of an artist who had explored
cinematic moods—from high tragedy to low comedy—during his four-decade
career.
What nobody foresaw was that Bergman would find a
variety of ways to circumvent his own retirement—directing television movies,
staging theater productions, and writing screenplays for other filmmakers to
direct. His latest enterprise as a screenwriter, Sunday’s Children, completes a
trilogy of family-oriented movies that began with Fanny and Alexander and
continued with The Best Intentions written by Bergman and directed by Danish
filmmaker Bille August.
