Ingmar Bergman has passed away

Ingmar Bergman, one of the greatest film directors ever has passed away today. The films he made, many of them together with the photographer Sven Nykvist, have had a very deep impact and influence on me. Just to mention a few masterpieces: "The Seventh Seal", "Wild Strawberries", "Autumn Sonata" and "Fanny & Alexander".
More information can be found at the site http://www.ingmarbergman.com/ and http://www.ingmarbergman.se/. To see the master at work have a look at Beata Bergströms pictures.
- A sad day indeed.
