My essay on Bergman's "Wild Strawberries: the Failure of Sublimation and the Fate of Pain" has been published in American Imago

Bergman's "Wild Strawberries: the Failure of Sublimation and the Fate of Pain" has been published in American Imago, an important psychoanalytic journal. I feel proud to be included in such a venerable publication.

The film WILD STRAWBERRIES can be seen on YouTube, at the moment.

Here is YouTube's link for The Phantom Carriage, an earlier film made by Victor David Sjöström to which Bergman's Wild Strawberries owes much of its spiritual character. Sjöström plays Isak Borg in Bergman's film.
