Why arent there cinemas that replay classics from like Bergman, Antonioni, Kubrick, Fellini, Hitchcock, Kurasawa, Wilder, Coppola and Lang or classics of the recent decades. Would love for a cinema like that round by mine.
Here in Amsterdam there are quite a few cinemas that every now and then show movies from those directors! Billy Wilder's Sunset Blvd for example is being showed next week in one of the theaters. And last week somewhere else were Il Conformista and Aliens. And last year in one of the theaters they had a Kubrick exposition and they showed all his films!
+Yeah, yeah I think most bigger cities have at least one arthouse theatre that plays things like that regularly. Unfortunately, my city doesn't have one, but I was lucky enough to catch Psycho at an old movie palace downtown on halloween a couple of years ago.
PinkFloydrulez we have one theatre that plays these type of films but only one every sunday "Vintage Sundays" they call it, managed to see Chinatown not long ago and 2001.
This film really surprised me. I loved The Seventh Seal a lot, but I actually liked Persona even more! It is so wonderfully atmospheric and ambiguous. The two characters are very interesting. I need to watch this again, though, so I can have a better understanding of what everything actually meant.
The best way I can say what it's 'about' is that it's an expression of the boundaries being erased between two people's personalities and sense of 'I' or me and you. Liv Ullman's character who has lost the ability to speak has a power over Bibi Andersson who filling the silence reveals her secrets to Liv's character. As they spend all their time with just each other they absorb aspects of each other's personalities. The film is showing that the carefully constructed identities we think are rock solid can fall away or mutate as we get closer to other people. And it is a truly frightening and amazing film that I never tire of watching!
Dunedin Film Society shows a wide variety of films like this, including Bergman. The only catch, you have to move to New Zealand's South Island. Start your own film society?
It lays bare the malice & madness present within every one of us (as we’re all flawed, fractured human beings), and nothing’s more disturbing than that.
Along with sublime creations by the likes of Michelangelo, Rodin, Frank Lloyd Wright, Bach, James Joyce, this is one of the finest works of art I've ever experienced.
The first Bergman film I saw, It did had a big impact on me but I didn't loved it, but after some days it growned on me more and more and now it's one of my favorite films, but I do love Cries & Whispers more though, I also loved Fanny & Alexander and The Seventh Seal!
I saw this movie when I was ten years old after fiddling with the UHF tuning dial on my TV and getting a clear picture on some unknown station. I remember thinking, "Ah, this is one of those experimental movies." I didn't understand it, but I liked it.
Me too! it It is a timeless classic, it had me in its grip from beginning to end. One of the first films I had seen that really demonstrated the potential of cinema to be so much more then just a way to kill a few hours.
This might sound a little film bro-ish of me but I remember when I watched this for the first time and at the beginning a still frame of male genitalia flashed on screen for a second and I thought to myself “Did Tyler Durden break into the editing room of this movie somehow?”
@@pumpkinsouffle17 can definitely see how persona influenced that film with how it seems like some parts of the film strip are falling apart at the seams, ironic considering one is seeped in femininity and the other absolutely DRENCHED in testosterone

Vancouver does www.thecinematheque.ca
In paris there is a much of cinema like this
One of my favorite films, also one of the most difficult to comprehend.
At first it may be a bit difficult but I think I get it now, it's not that complex to be honest.
@@Starkardur Well enlighten us
One of my all-time favorites. What a masterpiece.

Yeah watch it again, but don't think you'll understand it in your second viewing.

@@littleghostfilms3012 I always felt like the two characters were just dual sides of the same character, like dual 'personas'
After a half dozen times I don't really understand more, but I am still just as fascinated.

I just saw the film, amazing! The visuals and atmosphere are so unsettling and kind of disturbing, but it is hard not to find great! 10/10
Best film ever made
This film is scarier then any horror film ever.
It lays bare the malice & madness present within every one of us (as we’re all flawed, fractured human beings), and nothing’s more disturbing than that.
Along with sublime creations by the likes of Michelangelo, Rodin, Frank Lloyd Wright, Bach, James Joyce, this is one of the finest works of art I've ever experienced.
And Tarkovsky.
Pure cinema.
My favourite movie.

David Kubrick Is your name readily David Kubrick?
David Kubrick 😎

I love Bergman. I have yet to see this one along with a few others.
The 3rd most shocking film I've seen, after only Un Chien Andalou and La Jetée. One should not need 3 reasons to watch Persona. It's remarkable.
I saw this movie when I was ten years old after fiddling with the UHF tuning dial on my TV and getting a clear picture on some unknown station. I remember thinking, "Ah, this is one of those experimental movies." I didn't understand it, but I liked it.
I've discovered Persona was many people's introduction to "art house" movies, myself included.
Me too! it It is a timeless classic, it had me in its grip from beginning to end. One of the first films I had seen that really demonstrated the potential of cinema to be so much more then just a way to kill a few hours.
What tv channel was playing Persona?
@@andres65080 That's the main point of films like Persona. I agree, wholeheartedly.
An amaing, thrilling piece of work.
MASTERPIECE!!!!
I never saw it coming.
Brilliant film.
Yes yes yes yes.
The best part of this film is it’s madness
Persona is fucking amazing.
Where can I watch it ???????
This criterion advertisement doesn’t do Ingmar Bergman’s “Persona” justice. But then, I expect few ninety second trailers could.
Some more reasons: ruclips.net/video/6zUOtqRgClg/видео.html
Film Fatale ranked this as the best film of the 60s
It looks psychedelic but with subject matter like this that seems unavoidable. Especially for Bergman.
What is being spoken at 1:01?
the audio track is in reverse
@@christophernusca7466 I know, but what does it say in reverse?

hard to watch as Hour of the wolf.
This might sound a little film bro-ish of me but I remember when I watched this for the first time and at the beginning a still frame of male genitalia flashed on screen for a second and I thought to myself “Did Tyler Durden break into the editing room of this movie somehow?”
Me too!! Instantly thought of Fight Club

@@derekmatzek9551 can you explain me what is the purpose of showing that frame ?
@@rouhan9304 no I cannot, I am far from smart enough to do anything like that lol
N.4=Ingmar Bergman
