Between Stage and Screen: Ingmar Bergman DirectsIngmar Bergman (1918), by now responsible for about a hundred stage performances, forty radio productions, fifty feature films and fifteen TV productions, has for more than half a century combined an impressive versatility with a very marked individual signature. None of the many books on Bergman has so far attempted to compare Bergman's stage and screen activities - despite the fact that he has been an outstanding and very productive director in both areas and despite his own statement that 'the distance between the theater and the film studio has always been a short one'. |
