Autumn Sonata

Ingrid Bergman and Liv Ullmann in a scene from Höstsonaten (1978) Eng Sub
---------------------
It tells the story of a famous pianist who is confronted by her neglected daughter.

This could be easily one of the best acting performances ever seen in a movie.

[@Scottsteaux63]

Definitely one of Ingrid Bergman's finest hours on screen. Liv Ullmann is positively transcendent, The two together create one of cinema's greatest emotional explosions. The viewer is left weak. Awesome stuff.

[@EngelbertEdelholz]

The fact that Liv made more noise doesn't mean that Ingrid's acting was anything less than hers. Because Eva is hysteric in this scene Liv got more room to display the traumas of her character - it doesn't mean Ingrid's character had any less of those to portray. Without admitting to any preference of cinematic taste I like to think that Ingmar Bergman knew how to make a great fuss about agony; and perhaps, how not to. Self-discipline makes life interesting, and characters too.

Liv Ullmann has always impressed me with her lack of ego. She doesn't hesitate to appear as a dowdy, pudgy woman-child. And somehow she still shines.

[@IngridBergmanRocked]

Both actresses ROCKED...thanks:D

[@onezkyrideRO]

Liv Ullmann is absolutely amazing in this film. Probably the greatest actress performance i've ever seen.

[@Barbapippo]

This scene is almost unbearable.... what a great artist Mr Bergman was.

[@serepax]

PURE CLASS!!!

[@CRapt]

Gorgeous performances of two huge actrisses!!!

[@johndoll1511]

I recently just came upon this movie and this clip is mesmerizing. The acting is surreal in its excellence. This level of acting will never be repeated....ever!

[@alexanderprives4509]

интонации и мелодия голос У Улман....это совершенство мастерствп

[@bronxboy47]

Liv's performance is astonishing! Almost too intense to watch.

[@thevoiceinyourhead6481]

The only movie that managed to make me cry.

[@Saturn1885]

Truly amazing!! Performances like these will never happen again

[@TheGVA94]

Liv Ullmann, what a performance. And what a film. So real, so on point.

[@joansandraanderson4782]

I don’t know what to say It was brilliant acting on both mother and daughter ❤

[@VladSicoe]

OMG! I got the goose bumps while watching this scene. Ingid Bergman was truly great!!! Thank you ever so for the upload! :-)

[@masterodg5406]

This is where Liv Ullmann solidified her place as the best actress in history

[@Floppyearsmomma]

This is so painful to watch....just as it is intended to be. I felt Liv's pain, but oh my God, it looked as if Ingrid was being stabbed to death...shocked, and bewildered with each plunging of the knife.

"Is there so much hate for the ones we love?"

[@norwegianforestcat7471]

Kate knew a thing or two

[@johnsobieski3642]

The most moving scene in cinema.

[@MrSunlander]

powerful scenes, and your editing does it honor. Thank you.

[@Staminalis]

Unsurpassed scene!!

[@christusackermann7945]

Everyone has to speak out, how they really feel... It is part of our real life. It is not just a film... I don't think, the actors in this scene didn't really feel, how powerful these feelings touch them. It is not a drama but a real one... Please don't be sad again... Speak out...

[@boliviandimples]

Mrs. Bergman did feel it.... She said it was difficult, because it was too real... Her sacrificing motherhood from her kids to pursue her career. Plus, she was dying of breast cancer that spread to her spine... That part about her back when playing the piano.... Wow, wonderful performance from both actresses

[@vasyazadov]

impossible performance

[@dylanbonnar]

I do love the Swedish language

[@sweetjane5033]

can’t read subtitles! they are light & blurry.

[@TheRealValus]

If families could talk...

[@goback3spaces]

Eva has issues.

[@heebs1421]

liv ullman...wow...best acting EVER...ingrid paled in comparison..she was totally overshadowed by liv

[@Scottsteaux63]

I don't agree. Yes, Liv Ullmann is astonishing here, but one thing I learned in acting school is that most acting consists of REacting to what is said to you or what you see or hear in a particular scene and Bergman's devastation at her daughter's fury is just as amazing to me as the storm produced by Liv.

[@wowthatscrazy]

Where are all the tears in Liv's eyes? Where is all the snot she pretends to sniff up at 5:53? What an unconvincing performance.

[@sultanalharbi2998]

She is a great actress but I never understood why she is Ingmar's most famous actress since Harriet Andersson, Ingrid Thulin and Bibi Andersson are all better actresses.

[@boliviandimples]

When filled with anger & resentment... And with all your tears & snot run out because you are "all cried out" that dry crying can be painful...
