Bergman never understood why Antonioni was held in high esteem.
Antonioni let the visuals do the work – one must watch it all.
Relative to Antonioni, Bergman’s films could be ‘watched’ on the radio.

In literature, you are either a Jack Kerouac fan or a Norman Mailer fan.
I think there might be that same sort of relationship here:
you’re either a Antonioni fan or a Bergman fan.

Maybe ironic that Antonioni and Bergman died on the same day in 2007- July 30.
