Wild Strawberries (1959) |

Winner of the Grand Prix Award for Best Film at the 1958 Berlin Film Festival, Ingmar Bergman's classic Wild Strawberries concerns an elderly academic, introverted and emotionally arid, who makes a journey to collect a university award and en route relives his past through nightmares, dreams and memories as space and time are broken apart to reveal various levels of his inner life. Victor Sjostrom, a celebrated film director in his own right, best known for his silent work including the Hollywood masterpiece The Wind, gives a remarkably moving performance as the aged academic. Bergman's smiles and tears on a summer's day make for his most overtly symbolic work shifting skillfully between past and present, dream and reality. Filled with richly observed characters and a real feeling for the joys of nature and youth, Wild Strawberries is one of Bergman's warmest and finest films.
