“★★★★★ — Brilliant – in fact maybe unique…Ingmar Bergman’s mysterious and terrifying family drama has a realist structure shaken by tremors of supernatural revelation.” -Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

Through the eyes of ten-year-old Alexander, we witness the delights and conflicts of the Ekdahl family, a sprawling bourgeois clan in turn-of-the-twentieth-century Sweden. Ingmar Bergman intended Fanny and Alexander as his swan song, and it is the legendary director’s warmest and most autobiographical film, a four-time Academy Award–winning triumph that combines his trademark melancholy and emotional intensity with immense joy and sensuality. Condensed from a five-hour miniseries into a three-hour epic of sensuous memory, the film opens with one of cinema’s most luxuriously intoxicating evocations of a child’s Christmas.

“Astonishingly beautiful” -Roger Ebert

“Bergman’s greatest work” -Chicago Tribune

“Less an autumnal summation of his career than an investigation of its earliest beginnings…one of Bergman’s most haunting and suggestive films.” -Dave Kehr
