Bergman Film Series
coordinated by Elizabeth Oakes (The Maia Quartet) and Jon Winet (Intermedia)
Ingmar Bergman's The Trilogy (Through A Glass
Darkly, Winter Light, The Silence) and Autumn Sonata
“The Trilogy” is one of the major achievements of Swedish
film and stage director Ingmar Bergman’s brilliant career.
Created in rapid succession in the early sixties, the trio of films
present a “hopeless message of grief and despair’, examining
with laser point precision the challenges of faith and existence in
the twentieth century. Through their haunting black and white images,
sparse dialog and score, compelling performances and exquisitely crafted
production, the films none-the-less fill the viewer with an optimism
about the power of art to more deeply describe and understand the world.
Autumn Sonata, the last film in the series brings Ingmar and
Ingrid Bergman together for their one collaboration.Scored by the music
of Chopin, Bach and Handel, the 1978 film explores the emotional depths
of mother daughter relations. Both Ingrid Bergman and co-star Liv Ullmann
give tour-de-force performances. Sven Nykvist, Bergman’s longtime
cinematographer renders the narrative with a rich color palette.
The films will be presented in the state of the art auditorium of the
School of Art & Art History’s new building.

Ghost Sonata, by August Strindberg
presented in collaboration with the Maia
Quartet
Directed by Kevin Harris
E.
C. Mabie Theatre
Considered one of the greatest plays of the twentieth century, Ghost
Sonata is described as a dream play in three movements. In a world
where nothing is as it seems, this poetic, surreal, and highly theatrical
play includes vampires, veiled characters, and doors that lead nowhere
as it follows the story of a young man in search of the girl of his
dreams. Intertwined with live music from the late quartets of Beethoven,
this production promises to be a truly “must see” event.
$17/nonstudents, $12/seniors, $8/students.
Call the Hancher Box Office at 335-1160 or 1-800-HANCHER.
