Ingmar Bergman's Trilogy

For our second episode of August 2026, Tim and Brian have found themselves all along in the recording studio, and with nobody else to stop them, they inevitably made a beeline for the filmography of Ingmar Bergman. Specifically, they're talking about the thee films the great director made between 1961 and 1963: Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light, and The Silence. Alternate Ending's two resident Bergman nuts go long on the status of the three films as a contested trilogy, and their status in the director's filmography. Before the main event, Tim adds to our developing conversation from two weeks ago on Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, while Brian checks in with the record-setting box office behemoth Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Tim also catches up with the 1987 French sci-fi animation Gandahar, thanks to Patreon supporter and regular podcast guest Andrew Milne.
