3 Films by Roberto Rossellini Starring Ingrid Bergman

“Yes, the Rossellini Bergman are going home too. I could cry here just by remembering 'I love you' from Journey to Italy.”

“What’s this? It’s a Rossellini/Bergman box set. I see. That’s sexy to have. Okay, Stromboli.”

“Then this Rossellini starring Ingrid Bergman is a collaboration. You must think she made Casablanca, she was a star, and then she went to this communist Catholic communist Rossellini to Italy and they make six movies together. Stromboli, there is one scene when Ingrid Bergman wants to leave the island and she seduces a man who can bring her out. Some years later both make Journey to Italy. When something is dying you can feel for one moment all the enthusiasm of the start.”

“Rossellini, Bergman, fantastic. Stromboli I know, Journey to Italy I know, I don't know Europe '51. What is Europe '51? Well, I'm going to find out.”

“So Roberto Rossellini, I think I have to take him. Look at this, there is Journey to Italy, Stromboli, Europa '51. Isabella was in my last film and I think to just to remember her and to honor her basically—I'll meet her later—I'll take this and remember her parents.”

“Rossellini. Yeah, there’s the one. Stromboli. Europe ’51. Journey to Italy. I remember this line from Rossellini to Ingrid. Ingrid Bergman. She came to Italy, and she was coming from Hollywood, and she was expecting directions. 'What should I do?' And he looked at her and he said, 'Move, so I can film what’s around you.' Which is the perfect definition of moviemaking.”

“Well this, because if you don't take it you're a stupid guy because I think he is more than a filmmaker, he is also I think a light to follow sometimes.”

“Restons un peu aussi en Italie d'une certaine manière parce que c'est Rossellini. J'ai vu tout à l'heure en passant qu'il y avait Rossellini Bergman que nous avons vu revu mon frère et moi beaucoup de fois... Et des trois celui que j'ai le moins vu finalement c'est Voyage en Italie. Ce sera donc une occasion de le revoir et c'est formidable parce que j'ai trois DVD en un.”
