“In Bergman's world I represented a sort of intellectual, skeptical, ironic person, rather cold and frustrated. When I went abroad and made films in Italy and other places, I was used in different ways. I was rather often cast as crazy people, maniacs. It was very good for me and it was fun because it is nice to play crazy people if you are not in reality. And I think perhaps that changed how Ingmar saw me. Suddenly I was on the more magical side of his world, playing the people with fantasies, variety, the artists.” PeopleIfsThinkingWorldWayPersonsMadeDifferentPlayRealityFilmUsedArtistFunSidesFantasySawsNiceCrazyChangedColdIntellectualVery GoodCastsVarietyDifferent WaysIronicFrustratedSkepticalManiacsCrazy PeopleBergman Author:Erland Josephson
“It's the fantasy of first love. If you've been married for 400 years, as I have, it's nice to experience first love again and you can vicariously through a book. And it is such a fantasy. It takes you away from doing the dishes and the laundry. I think of this as a contemporary romance rather than erotic fiction.” IfsThinkingYearsFirstsBookRomanceFictionFantasyNiceMarriedContemporaryDishesFirst LoveEroticLaundryLove Again Author:E. L. James
