One of my major projects earlier this year was writing essays on four of Ingmar Bergman’s actors, for the Criterion Collection “channel” on FilmStruck (which will cease operations in a couple of weeks, despite an outpouring of protest). It was an enormous undertaking and so much fun. Peter Cowie, noted Bergman scholar/historian, and I split up the actors. So far, two of the videos I wrote/narrated have gone up, the joint video on Liv Ullmann and Bibi Andersson, and a video on Ingrid Thulin. (There will be one more). Unless you had a subscription to FilmStruck, you couldn’t see these videos. Now, Criterion has moved them all over onto a landing page on their own site.
