Ingmar Bergman

Universally ranked among the most accomplished and influential filmmakers of all time, Bergman was a master storyteller who startled the world with his stark intensity and naked pursuit of the most profound metaphysical and spiritual questions. He is noted for his versatile camerawork and for his fragmented narrative style, which contribute to his bleak depiction of human loneliness, vulnerability, and torment.
He was nominated for 3 Academy Awards as director , 5 as a writer, while winning an Honorary Award. One of his films was also nominated for Best Picture.
One of his films made it to our All-Time Best Films list.
