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.

An epic story of mismatched love shaped in the most intimate terms, the Ingmar Bergman-scripted The Best Intentions packs a sustained emotional wallop that lightens its three-hour span.

La ví por primera vez hace 10 años atrás... Creo que de las 3 horas que dura, yo empecé a llorisquear a la hora y media... o sea que fue re molesto ver la película al lado mío. Una de mis películas preferidas de todos los tiempos, no sé por qué me olvidé de agregarla antes a la lista. Perfecta, intensa, profunda, terrible... Como dice la sinopsis de arriba, la historia de los padres de Ingmar Bergman... siempre sentí que Bergman aprendió a entender y perdonar los errores de sus no tan perfectos padres a través de ésta película, por eso éste guión me parecío un ejercicio de perdón y de entendimiento (dos de las cosas más difíciles que les toca hacer a los seres humanos).

Makes the point that marriage always brings spirituality down to earth with its focus on the all the effort that goes into making an intimate relationship work.

After he officially retired from directing, Ingmar Bergman wrote this screenplay about his parents ... their meeting, marriage and early life together. Billie August, straight from "Pelle the Conqueror" with Max Von Sydow, was chosen to direct. Von Sydow appears as Bergman's maternal grandfather. August's wife Pernilla stars as Bergman's mother Anna. The couple come from very different socio-economic backgrounds, so both families oppose the marriage. Anna is advantaged and somewhat spoiled, so she has difficulty adjusting to a life as the wife of a rural preacher. Bergman's father Henrik comes from a background of extreme poverty and nurses a deep hurt that lashes out at others when conflict arises. The version I watched is the 3 hour feature, edited down from 5 1/2 hour version originally aired on Swedish television. Everything about this is top notch, from the performances to the production design to the direction.

A deeply satisfying film, THE BEST INTENTIONS, honored with the prestigious Palm d'Or at the 1992 Cannes Film Festival, uses its considerable length to examine the early relationship of Bergman's parents with uncompromising thoroughness.
