Officially, Ingmar Bergman retired from movie directing after Fanny and Alexander, the autobiographical boyhood saga he made in 1982. Yet the great Swedish filmmaker continued adding to his impressive catalog almost until his death in July. He followed Fanny with four more dramas about his or his parents’ lives that he scripted but did not direct and also helmed several movies for television. The National Gallery of Art’s three-film tribute, “Scenes From a Life: Ingmar Bergman,” begins with one of the latter, 2003’s Saraband, a gentler but still sharp-edged sequel to Scenes From a Marriage, the lacerating epic of marital dissolution. Regulars Liv Ullmann (who directed two of Bergman’s later scripts) and Erland Josephson return as older versions of their ’70s characters, who meet again warily after 32 years. Also showing is director Marie Nyreröd’s 2006 Bergman Island, which is set largely on Fårö, the director’s longtime island refuge, but also includes footage of his last visits to places in Sweden that were crucial to his life and career—including the church whose ceiling gave him The Seventh Seal’s image of death playing chess. The series runs to Sunday, Oct. 7, at the National Gallery of Art’s East Building Auditorium, 4th St. & Constitution Ave. NW. Free.
