Ingmar Bergmann’s stark modernist masterpiece of dissolving, merging female identities and the nature of cinema must surely influenced Lynch’s Mulholland Dr. (Dreams of Desire 6). Both movies explore the porous boundaries of personality, the projection of desires onto another (and the subsequent hatred when the other remains separate and distinct) and the illusions that we create to maintain our precarious, fabricated self-image.
Deeply philosophical and troubling to contemplate. This has been weighing on me greatly.

It is a brilliant movie, I love that scene (which could be a dream scene) that the still is from, it features mirrors as well. Watch this movie.

With or without wine?

It’s Swedish so I would say without the wine. It’s beautifully shot and minimal and demands great attention.
