Bergman is above criticism; he is a Director's Director, even to the point where Woody Allen has tried to emulate him in "Interiors"; a nod to the Master.
Sven Nykvist is the other ingredient, a superb cinematographer.
Bergman, alive, garners the kind of hagiography usually reserved only for the Dead.
Criticising his Trilogy would be akin to criticising cracks in the Cistine Chapel ceiling; nothing in Art or life is ever perfect as we know, but in the face of truly great Art we can only be humble.
