MAX VON SYDOW IST TOT

Die ganze Zärtlichkeit in seinem Gesicht

• VON ANDREAS KILB
• Von der Gnade, im Kino niemals jung gewesen zu sein
• In Winzigkeiten war er groß. Der Mann, der sie ihm beibrachte, war zugleich sein Entdecker, denn erst mit achtundzwanzig, mit der Rolle des Ritters Antonius Block in Ingmar Bergmans „Das siebente Siegel“, wurde der Filmschauspieler Max von Sydow geboren.

Happy birthday to one of the greatest actors of all time – Max von Sydow, 89 years old today!

‚He controls his demons with the utmost degree of discipline; never allowing them to roam free in his private life, only unleashing them on stage.‘

Ingmar Bergman

Von Sydow on his relationship to Ingmar Bergman:  We are friends. We have worked together extensively, both on stage and in films, most of which took place when we were both much younger. We were free, he was not yet world-renowned and I was nothing more than a common theatre actor with a few film roles under my belt. We worked hard and enjoyed ourselves. I cannot say exactly what influence he has had on me but it must be significant.- ingmarbergman.se

Max von Sydow

One of the best-known Swedish actors from the Post-War period, von Sydow played the lead in several of Ingmar Bergman’s film and stage productions between 1955 and 1972.- ingmarbergman.se

Born Carl Adolf von Sydow on 10 April 1929 in Lund in southern Sweden, he was the only child in father Carl Wilhelm von Sydow’s second marriage. His father was a professor of ethnography at Lund University and his mother was a grammar school teacher.

At the age of 15, von Sydow attended a performance of William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the newly opened Malmö City Theatre. Being inspired by this experience, he started amateur theatre company Scenia with a few of his friends, and they staged plays by August Strindberg, Pär Lagerkvist and Hjalmar Bergman.
