| ESSENTIAL ARTHOUSE in HD: ''Seventh Seal'' by Ingmar BERGMAN ESSENTIAL ARTHOUSE in HD! An MBC Premiere «DIGITAL» Presentation! In collaboration with Emerging Pictures Miami Theatrical DIGITAL Premiere! The Seventh Seal (Det sjunde inseglet) (Directed by Ingmar Bergman/Sweden/1957/96 mins) With Max von Sydow, Inga Landre, Gunnar Bjornstrand, Bibi Andersson Much studied, imitated, even parodied, but never outdone, Bergman’s stunning allegory of man’s search for meaning, The Seventh Seal (Det sjunde inseglet), was one of the benchmark foreign imports of America’s 1950s art-house heyday, pushing cinema’s boundaries and ushering in a new era of moviegoing. Disillusioned and exhausted after a decade of battling in the Crusades, a knight (Max von Sydow) encounters Death on a desolate beach and challenges him to a fateful game of chess. . . In Swedish with English subtitles. WINNER: Golden Bear Berlin Film Festival and FIPRESCI Prize Italian National Society of Film Critics Award National Board of Review Best Foreign Film and Best Actor “As the picture that launched art-house cinema (along with Bergman, leading player Max von Sydow, and distributor Janus Films), The Seventh Seal holds a place in movie annals as secure as that of Battleship Potemkin or Citizen Kane or any other earthshaking classic you care to name.”-Gary Giddens Friday, November 13, 2009 at 8:30 PM Miami Beach Cinematheque 512 Espanola Way Miami Beach, FL 33139 Phone: (305) 673-4567 Website: www.mbcinema.com E-Mail: info@mbcinema.com Map & Directions |
