Ingmar Bergman Quote
-
[on Michelangelo Antonioni] He`s done two masterpieces, you don`t have to bother with the rest. One is Blowup (1966), which I`ve seen many times, and the other is Notte, La (1961), also a wonderful film, although that`s mostly because of the young Jeanne Moreau. In my collection I have a copy of Grido, Il (1957) and damn what a boring movie it is. So devilishly sad, I mean. You know, Antonioni never really learned the trade. He concentrated on single images, never realizing that film is a rhythmic flow of images, a movement. Sure, there are brilliant moments in his films. But I don`t feel anything for Avventura, L` (1960), for example. Only indifference. I never understood why Antonioni was so incredibly applauded. And I thought his muse Monica Vitti was a terrible actress."
