Additional InformationIn this drama written and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Ingmar Bergman, Eva, the meek, seemingly complacent wife of a parson, invites her mother, Charlotte, a world famous pianist, to come for a visit, hoping for a reconciliation after a long period of estrangement and virtually no interaction. Instead, long-repressed feelings of rage toward her mother for repeatedly abandoning her as a child begin to surface and finally culminate in a cathartic confrontation between the two women. Liv Ullmann and Ingrid Bergman (in her final movie role) give excellent and emotionally charged performances as Eva and Charlotte.
ReviewsSight and Sound - ...There is much to be grateful for in AUTUMN SONATA....Ingrid Bergman gives a superb display of a woman transforming herself into a concert pianist..., Variety - ...A fascinating study, AUTUMN SONATA requires the full attention of the viewer...
