INGMAR BERGMAN

Ingmar Bergman passed away today.
One of my favorite scenes from The Seventh Seal is when the knight meets Death for the first time.



Who are you, asks the knight to the man in the black robes. I am Death, he answers. The knight then challenges him to a game of chess to stall death. And no matter how well he plays, the result is a foregone conclusion.

Farewell, celluloid knight.
More on The Seventh Seal in the next post.
