Story Synopsis:
Considered by many as the finest work of Ingmar Bergman, Autumn Sonata stars Ingrid Bergman in their only collaboration. The Swedish film won a Golden Globe Award as Best Foreign Film in 1978. Ingrid plays a self-centered concert pianist who neglected her family to pursue a music career. Liv Ullmann is her emotionally crippled oldest daughter whose feelings of repression surface when, in an attempted reconciliation, they spend a long, confrontational night that leads to some mutual acceptance and forgiveness.
LaserDisc Picture:
The sharp and detailed picture is matted at 1.55:1 with beautifully composed and richly hued color interior cinematography by Sven Nykvist.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The sound is monaural.
