Fanny och Alexander, 1982 (Fanny and Alexander, 1983, USA)
An absolutely magical film so full of memorable scenes and characters. Criterion has the best US version, including the uncut five-hour version aired on Swedish TV as well as the movie theater version, in original Swedish and dubbed, and a one-hour Making of documentary by Bergman.
( “The world is a den of thieves, and night is falling. Evil breaks its chains and runs through the world like a mad dog. The poison affects us all. No one escapes. Therefore let us be happy while we are happy. Let us be kind, generous, affectionate and good. It is necessary and not at all shameful to take pleasure in the little world.” )
