These early Bergman movies are of sheer beauty. Thanks to these nice people at Artificial Eye. For me this is the best Blu-Ray release of 2012. Bergman is a true breathtaking story teller. All five a joy to watch.

Finally, after a months waiting, the product is released. The problem with Artificial Eye is that they can't keep up the release dates and keep postponing. This time they did a far better job with these 5 films from the Swedish master, Ingmar Bergman, than they did with Mizoguchi Collection. 4 of the five films are here for the first time and the HD transfer is complimentary to the director. One must admit that anyhow the films made by Bergman are in a far better state than the ones of Mizoguchi and probably to master the image and sound was way easier. Anyhow, to come back to the movies. The five are spread over a period of 12 years from the beginning of his career as film director. As one can expect out of such art-house movies, they are not meant for anybody. The level or artistic achievement and drama is the usual Bergman style. The humor within his movies is somehow present in small portions or larger ones and makes out of the final films delights. I won't spoil the subjects of these movies, but I will only add that the package is beautifully crafted and there are two special documentaries on two of the discs. I've paid a very attractive price as I ordered it through Amazon's pre-order option. It is so worth the buy!
