Review of The Magician (1958) by Idel J — 03 Apr 2012
Bergman's sardonic comedy about an artist's lies is a meditation on truth and illusion, the conflict between faith and logic in how we appreciate reality, and a movingly personal reflection of his own career as an artist navigating ineptitude and criticism to hit his target - an elusive feeling, a primal stir, in the recesses of the soul.
