★ 8.5 editorial score
More has been written about this film than almost any other: Bergman put two women on an island until their faces merged, and left everyone to explain what happened.
“Shot in 1965, when its director was suffering from deep depression, "Persona" is Ingmar Bergman’s most radical work—a minimalist two-hander (in which only one person speaks for the vast majority of the movie) that expanded what cinema could do in terms of both abstract montage and the juxtaposition of human faces.”
