- Synopsis:
Set in the 1920s at the Swedish film studios, the great silent director Victor Sjostrom is nearing completion of The Phantom Carriage, a cinematic adaptation of a popular novel, and has invited the book's authoress, along with the film's leading actress, to look at some early scenes. But, when both women claim to know the story and the characters best, a psychological battle arises which threatens to destabilise the whole project. A tribute to his mentor and to the film which inspired him to become a film-maker, Bergman's drama features a mesmerising performance by one of Sweden's greatest theatre actresses, Anita Bjork. An emotional storm of a film, with a style and rhythm quite unlike that of his other films (described by Bergman as "TV Theatre") The Image Makers was the great director's penultimate work for the screen. - Actors:
