Scenes from a Marriage


I knew nothing of Ingmar Bergman's films until the last couple of weeks. A season of his films has been on Film 4. I recorded a few and watched this one last night. It was originally a TV series in Sweden. In the year it was shown the Scandinavian divorce rates almost doubled.
It's mostly about something I've thought and written about - The possibility of your life becoming a caricature of what is expected of you.
