? Norwegian Film Institute. Bibi Andersson, Ingmar Bergman and Liv Ullmann
Liv Ullmann and Ingmar Bergman are one of the best known and most discussed couples in the history of cinema. The brilliant duet of the Norwegian actress and the Swedish director provided Scandinavian cinema with a pride of the place in the universal film history and influenced largely the further development of independent cinema in the Nordic countries.?
?The couple met in 1964 and lived together for five years. Having continued their collaboration further on, they created alltogether twelve films, with Liv engaged in nine as actress. Their first collaboration, Persona (1966) was the actress's debut, and it made her world-famous. According to Bertman, Ulmann was the 'Stradivarius' of their collaboration. He discovered her talent for acting out complex female characters inhabiting his films. The result of their cooperation during the 1960-1970s was a number of films and theatre plays: Hour of the Wolf, The Passion of Anna, Cries and Whispers, Scenes from a Marriage (screenplay), Face to Face (screenplay), Autumn Sonata, to name a few.
In the following decades, Bergman continued his work as film director, with a lifelong filmography of over fifty films, many of which may be considered masterpieces, with no exaggeration. One of Bergman's later films, Fanny and Alexander, received Oscars in four nominations. Beside his work in cinema, Ingmar Bergman was engaged as theatre director and staged plays by Shakespeare, Ibsen, Chekhov and Strindberg. Bergman spent his late years on Faro Island in the Baltic Sea where he had a house.?
In 1976, Liv Ullmann tried herself as a writer with her autobiography, Changing, and in 1992 she first appeared as film director in Sofie. A new period for Bergman-Ullmann collaboration started in 1996 when Liv filmed Private Talks (1996) and, later, Faithless (2000), both after Bergman's scripts.
