Dave S Written by Ingmar Bergman and directed by Liv Ullmann, one can't help but think that Faithless is some sort of collective confessional, an exercise in chasing away demons that may have haunted them for years. Regardless, the movie tackles the subject of infidelity with surgical precision, told through the lens of an aging director (Erland Josephson) and the characters he has conjured to life, primarily the catalyst of the events, an actress named Marianne (Lena Endre). Thanks to some solid direction by Ullmann, a typically intelligent and insightful script from Bergman, and a remarkable performance from Endre, Faithless deals with the subject matter unlike any other film of its kind – alternately loving, brutal, and tragic. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Ullmann makes a Bergman movie, using his script, actors and his location. A triangular couple relation, including Bergman? himself. Naturally the whole spectre of emotions are blown in your face.

I really like the concept of the film (and the cast is good), but I just can't quite recommend it. A near-miss.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I've watched quite a few Bergman films and like his other films they can seem slow moving intricate affairs. however, if you have the 2 1/2 hours to sit through this, you'll be rewarded with a fine film experience. My suggestion is to watch the movie without knowing any of the backstory behind the film, then when finished, read about how/why this movie was created. Once you know the story behind the story, you'll see how this movie operates on a few different levels.... Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
