Few filmmakers can be said to have had as tremendous an impact on film as Ingmar Bergman. With 62 films under his belt before his death this past July, Bergman influenced some of the greatest filmmakers today — Woody Allen, Robert Altman, David Lynch — and ultimately set a standard for film students across the world. Traveling dark and forbidden terrains, with new and imposing cinematic techniques as his tools, Bergman created an entirely new cinematic aesthetic. Join the Oak Street Cinema throughout the next couple of weeks, as they pay homage to the Swedish film giant. Tonight’s film is the 1954 love-tangle A Lesson In Love. It’s just like Bergman to center a film around a philandering gynecologist.
