Persona is a 1966 black and white Swedish film written and directed by Ingmar Bergman and starring Bibi Andersson and Liv Ullmann. Persona’s story revolves around a young nurse named Alma (Bibi Andersson) and her patient, a well-known stage actress named Elisabet Vogler (Liv Ullmann), who has suddenly ceased to speak. The Latin word persona originally referred to the masks worn by actors on stage.
Persona has been labelled a psychological drama and modernist horror, and was subject to cuts because of its controversial subject matter. It is the sixth collaboration between influential cinematographer Sven Nykvist and director Ingmar Bergman and features their trademark minimalism. As with Bergman’s other works, the film is shot and set in Sweden and deals with the themes of illness, bleakness, death and insanity.
Persona is considered one of the major works of the 20th century by essayists and critics such as Susan Sontag who referred to it as Bergman's masterpiece. Other critics have described it as "one of this century’s great works of art". In the British Film Institute's 2012 Sight & Sound’s poll, Persona was ranked the 17th greatest film ever made in the critics' poll (tied with Akira Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai") and 13th in the directors' poll. Persona won the award for Best Film at the 4th Guldbagge Awards and it was Sweden's entry to the 39th Academy Award category for Best Foreign Film. It currently holds a 93% "Fresh" rating at Rotten Tomatoes.

Man, I haven't analyzed a film I don't like so thoroughly since high-school. 'Persona', which is hailed as one of Bergman's greatest films, has very intriguing themes and some compelling moments, but overall it's too slow, tedious and blatantly expository, and its characters aren't three-dimensional enough for the film to be an enjoyable watching experience (in my opinion). This video is partly directed to certain people (mostly Scagcowboy) who think that I'm not sophisticated enough to review arthouse movies, or don't pay attention when watching them. This discussion should prove the opposite. (Note: The use of copyrighted material in this video is permitted by fair use laws for the purposes of criticism, review and satire. Also, as with the last Bergman film I reviewed, I had to return ...

The composition at the beginning of this scene from Ingmar Bergman's 1966 film 'Persona' is achingly perfect. The rest of the scene is included for context.
name me, call me
anything and i’ll say a word
another lie to keep me as you like
patience, reticence this is what you’ve done
i’ve found a place some inner light
and somewhere i belong
faceless, limitless keep me from the eyes
that take the sleep
the innocent, the stranger and the child waste it
start again knowing when to hide
i wear a mask for everyone
