I met my sweetheart at the movies. At the movie The Virgin Spring to be exact -- and before I ever knew Will and loved him, we were both admiring the genius of the actor Max von Sydow, whose body, I would later discover, was very similar to Will's. Then, as Will and I grew to love each other, into our love was folded a love for the work of Ingmar Bergman.
Thus I felt sad on Monday when I told him that Max von Sydow had died and he couldn't remember who that was. I made a little meme referencing The Seventh Seal (1957)
