The Best Intentions
In this film about Ingmar Bergman’s parents, Henrik Bergman is studying for the priesthood and trying to make ends meet when he encounters the lovely, affluent Anna. Despite their social differences, Henrik and Anna fall in love, wed and move to the country. They lead a quiet life as Henrik works as a priest, but it isn’t long before the simple people and plain surroundings make Anna long for a more lavish lifestyle, which causes marital stress.
