The Seventh Seal [DVD]

Antonius Block (Max Von Sydow) a knight returns from a 10-year crusade with his squire Jons (Gunnar Bjornstrand) to find his homeland ravaged by the plague. When the black-cloaked figure of Death (Bengt Ekerot) appears to claim them Block whose war experiences have left him cynical about the existence of God and the afterlife challenges Death to a game of chess to stall for time and gain some insight into the meaning of life before passing on. The game is intermittently paused and resumed during the journey home while Block and Jons meet several traveling companions including a mute girl (Gunnel Lindblom) whom they save from a bandit and a family of poor traveling players--Jof a gentle visionary (Nils Poppe) his wife Mia (Bibi Andersson) and their infant daughter. Block witnesses much suffering and anguish along the way (an encounter with a woman accused of witchcraft who is about to be burned at the stake is especially jarring) but also finds evidence of human kindness and love prompting him to realize that even a single gesture of goodwill might make the long struggle of his existence worthwhile. The title of Ingmar Bergmans highly acclaimed allegorical film stems from the Book of Revelation.
