"I write scripts to serve as skeletons awaiting the flesh and sinew of images"

- Ingmar Bergman

About this Quote

In this quote, Ingmar Bergman, a prominent Swedish filmmaker, explains his procedure of composing scripts. He compares his scripts to skeletons, which are incomplete and lacking substance. Simply as a skeleton requires flesh and sinew to end up being a living being, Bergman's scripts need images to come to life. He sees the images as the vital components that give depth and meaning to his stories. Without them, the scripts are mere lays out, waiting to be brought to life through the visual medium of film. This quote highlights the importance of visual storytelling in Bergman's work and the important function that images play in communicating his ideas and emotions.
