Ingrid Bergman was not only an incomparable beauty but one of the
finest actresses of cinema's Golden Age. She made her start in
modest productions in Sweden before Hollywood beckoned and soon
became one of filmdom's brightest stars. She appeared in many
acclaimed films including Casablanca, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and
Gaslight. While her personal life was briefly tainted by an affair
and a consequent falling out with the American public, Bergman was
eventually able to return to Hollywood, and eventually earned two
of her three Academy Awards. In The Essential Films of Ingrid
Bergman, Constantine Santas and James Wilson look at the most
notable performances of the award-winning actress's career. From
her early work in Swedish films to her final role in the
mini-series A Woman called Golda, this book analyzes the entirety
of Bergman's on-screen career, paying special attention to those
aspects of her acting that made her stand out most-her undeniable
range of emotion, her stunning vulnerability, and her indisputable
beauty. Among the films discussed in this volume are Casablanca,
Gaslight, Spellbound, The Bells of St. Mary's, Notorious,
Indiscreet, and Murder on the Orient Express. This volume looks at
each of Bergman's most significant films, covering nearly five
decades of film making, from Swedish productions to her final
films. Each entry provides production history, plot summaries, film
highlights, and major award details. Highlighting more than twenty
productions, The Essential Films of Ingrid Bergman is a must-have
for every fan of the legendary actress.
