Last Fall Foreign Film
Comes December 4-5
The final foreign film in the
fall series will be shown at the
center Threatre Wednesday and
Thursday, Dec. 4 and 5. This is
Bergman release “Winter
Light," second in his trilogy
about man and God, the first of
which, “Through A Glass Dark-
ly^» was shown last year.
“Winter Light” involves the
minister of a parish in a small
Swedish coastal town, his mis
tress, a fisherman, and his preg
nant wife. In one day the mini
ster discovers there is no longer
any communication between God
and himself, a discovery made
through his disastrous relations
with the fisherman and the mis
tress.
Time magazine says; “Sweden's
cinematic poltergeist, Ingmar
Bergman, once more haunts the
dark and chilly corridors where
man loses God, and once more
the soul in torment seems to be
that of Bergman’s. Has God (as
Bergman poses the question
through the film) spoken a les
son of his authority and man’s
humbleness? Bergman draws no
conclusions.”
And from the New Yorker re
view: ‘Winter Light’ is the latest
Installment of Ingmar Bergman’s
running debate with God — a
God who; for him has either
the rudeness to pretend to be
deaf or the nerve to be non
existent. A forbidding sounding
movie but it is, I assure you,
a beautiful one "as well. Still
another reason for bravely com
mitting yourself to it, is the pre
sence of several members of the
Bergman repertory group, in
cluding Gunnar Bjornstrand, In
grid Thulin, and Max von Sydow,
as the pastor, his mistress, and
the doomed fisherman, re
spectively.”

NATIVE OF ISRAEL
Bar-nian was born in Isrs il
in 1930 and started his trainii g
in Haifa. He soon won a schoh .•
ship for study in the United States.
This musical study was inter-
rupted when he returned to his
native land where he joined the
Israeli army during the War of
Independence. Later he com
pleted his studies and graduated
from the Juilllard School and the
Mannes College of Music.

Bar-Illan’s interpretations of
the great classics of the re
pertory have marked him as
“a poet of the keyboard” (New

ly at home in the modern Idiom.
He has introduced many works
