Times (UK)

Magnusson captures the humanity, wit and contradictions of a man who, like Leonard Cohen, is too often dismissed as a gloom-monger.

David Parkinson

Empire Magazine

Regardless of the skittish structure and illegible subtitles, this is a valuable reflection on an incalculably influential career, which serves as a timely reminder about the pitfalls of artistic tyranny.

There are lots of useful nuggets, not least in the firm but fair coverage of Bergman's less attractive traits.

Backseat Mafia

Using a wealth of previously unseen footage it paints a more holistic picture of a troubled and flawed magician.

Throughout the most productive year for Bergman in 1957, we see Bergman as a human through every aspect from deep inside of his heart including his fetish for women, to the outside of his almost notorious fame in theatrical career. Without a doubt that we love Bergman, but after all we need to get to know the one of the greatest of all time in film history by break the myth.
