Wild Strawberries (1957) w/ James Matthew Wilson

<div id="js_35" class="_5pbx userContent _3576" data-testid= "post_message" data-ft="{"tn":"K"}"> <p>Considered to be one of Ingmar Bergman's greatest and most affecting films, <em>Wild Strawberries</em> (1957) is a moving depiction of a cantankerous-yet-charming old man (famed Swedish filmmaker & actor Victor Sjöström) as he nears the end of his life. Through reveries, dreams, and a series of unlikely encounters, Bergman crafts a visually arresting, tonally varied, and deeply human tale of failure, forgiveness, and hope. We discuss this richly poetic and philosophical work with poet and philosopher James Matthew Wilson.</p> <p>Next up on Criteria, we will be viewing the 1937 French film <em>Le Grande Illusion</em> directed by Jean Renoir (son of the painter Pierre-Auguste Renoir)!
