Review of The Magician (1958) by Andrey B — 27 Jul 2016

Though not considered one of Ingmar Bergman's masterpieces, I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It's part drama/romance/horror/comedy, he really covers the gamut in this one. It also features almost his entire stable of actors from that time period, it was nice seeing so many familiar faces in one film.

I also loved the cinematography which is outstanding, especially earlier in the film when they are in the woods. This is a very rewarding Bergman film and I found it an easy watch. Give it a try!
