In the midst of death, there is this very funny cartoon…
Just a quickie, this time. I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Ingmar Bergman has died.
I can’t say I liked any of his films but never mind. One of the most famous of his movies was The Seventh Seal.
To give you an impression of this (yet another) gloom and doom vehicle for our frolic-free Viking, there’s this useful link.
Frankly, I wouldn’t have bothered with this - or any mention of Bergman’s passing if it weren’t for a glorious cartoon in today’s Guardian, by Steve Bell.
Truly wonderful.
It almost makes all those dreadful Bergman films worth their while - but not worth watching again, thank you.
INCOMING: This is a Seventh Seal based cartoon by Peter Brookes in today’s Times,
