Since I first encountered them in college, forty years ago, Bergman's films have been among the few that I care about as deeply as I do my favorite books and music, notwithstanding the fact that I had no clear idea what some of the more gnomic ones (e.g. Persona) were really about. As much as any artist, and more than all but a very few, he showed us the meaning of the absence of God. May he find the light and joy that were seldom seen in his work, but were all the more vivid for being rare.
