In this episode, I talk about Ingmar Bergman’s devastating 1978 film, “Autumn Sonata.” It’s an unforgettable portrait of a mother/daughter relationship that is toxic and damaging. It was Ingmar’s only collaboration with Ingrid Bergman. Their working relationship was difficult at times, but there is no denying that both she and Liv Ullmann give powerhouse performances.

In this episode, I explore Ingmar Bergman’s 1957 classic, “Wild Strawberries,” in which an elderly man remembers moments from his past and struggles to connect with the people in his life. The film helped to catapult Bergman to worldwide fame and is one of his most enduring films. While I do provide an in-depth analysis of the film, I also discuss how it brought up my own childhood memories and made me reflect on my painful loneliness, alienation, and disconnection.
