Hello, all. Happy New Year!
I'm a big foreign film fan, and one of my New Year's resolutions is to expand my horizons even further in this genre (well, not really a "resolution" per se, but it's a good justification for purchasing some more DVDs, no?).
Okay, I'd like to get going on some Bergman--one of the few majors I have not seen much of yet (I have seen bits of a few films--enough to know I like his work).
Where is the best place to start? The many Criterion titles? I'd like to get one of the Bergman box sets, perhaps as a starting point--should I go with the Criterion Trilogy or MGM's upcoming? Any individual tites worth checking out first? What is a good Bergman primer?
In your opinion, where is the best place to get these titles? DDD? Anyone have any bargain recommendations?
Thanks in advance for any help.
