The Seventh Seal
For those of you who found Dante's Inferno interesting, I recommend you watch "the Seventh Seal", directed by Ingmar Bergman. It's a Swedish film from '57, which follows a knight as he returns from the Crusades, struggling with his weakness of faith and avoiding Death (literally, watch it, you'll know what I mean).

What a great film!
ReplyDeleteI took a look at it on youtube, but I didn't get to finish watching all of it. The beginning itself was really random, because the scene showed a knight playing chess with Death in the middle of a beach. The character is similar to Dante because both are doubtful of their beliefs in God.
