Ingmar Bergman: The Swedish master who hides away on a small island, Geoffrey Macnab, Independent, 13 July 2007.
Ingmar Bergman by Hamish Ford (2002: Senses of Cinema). Heavy duty, with words such as meta-diagetic { 2 - narratology discussed} and oneiric, but does the job.
At the height of the anti-Bergman wave, the Swedish cinema magazine Chaplin decided to produce an anti-Ingmar Bergman issue. There were many vitriolic contributions. One of the most telling came from an Ernest Riffe, who demolished the filmmaker with astonishing insight. "This artist without any substance of his own," wrote Riffe, "needs a literary work to fall back upon. Then, and only then, can his best qualities be released." As this coincided with the view held by most Swedish intellectuals, the essay was welcomed. Then Ernest Riffe revealed his true entity—none other than Ingmar Bergman.from : As normal as smorgasbord by Charles Marowitz (Originally published in The New York Times, 1 July 1973)
