Day 43: ‘Winter Light’ 1963

‘Winter Light’ 1963

Last night was Winter Light (1963), the second film in Ingmar Bergman’s Faith trilogy. By chance I came across this three-disc set in the library which wasn’t filed under the films’ titles. I watched Through a Glass Darkly (1961) a few nights ago, which was a fascinating addition to what I know about Ingmar Bergman and the themes which reoccur. Winter Light similarly was about faith, but paper-thin if someone is trying to understand it, as normal film narrative, where there a significant number of events unfolding.
