[kj] OT: Filmmaker Ingmar Bergman dead

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

Here we are discussing Harry Potter and The Simpsons movies -- Ingmar 
Bergman just passed. Maybe that puts things in perspective. Ironically, 
I recently watched his The Virgin Spring on DVD (Criterion), a very 
unsettling movie that left an indelible impression on me, moreso than 
his famous The Seventh Seal.

So, rest in peace. He was one of the great artists of the medium.
