I didn't know, however, that there was a chess mural, death and a knight, near Stockholm, nor that Norwich had glass with the same chess-game motif. I guess I assumed that Bergman thought of it himself (but of course that would be unlike him). I think I must see that film again; I only saw it when it was new.<br />Excellent post.teegeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12719991678290299753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205961612182676788.post-62407443149287321862011-07-19T00:20:49.537+01:002011-07-19T00:20:49.537+01:00i'm glad you told me about this bergman fest. ...i'm glad you told me about this bergman fest. i'll have to catch some of the ones i haven't seen.-E-https://www.blogger.com/profile/05375171079121062220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205961612182676788.post-1230817419072694552011-07-18T22:50:39.244+01:002011-07-18T22:50:39.244+01:00Seventh Seal was my first Bergman film, and maybe ...Seventh Seal was my first Bergman film, and maybe one of the first two or three art films I'd ever seen. Bergman is always compelling. His Winter Light is a movie that made a huge impression. On seeing it, one thought was that it is a movie everyone in any kind of pastoral role should see repeatedly. Another was the thought that any faith group which cannot successfully address despair or doubt is worthless.<br /><br />Anyway, thank you for this. Beautiful stained glass. Modern glass can be so utterly ugly in its pandering sentimentality.Tuirginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081067215683168015noreply@blogger.com
