“Victor Sjöström's The Phantom Carriage. I know this for a fact was on Ingmar Bergman's top 10 list. Swedish silent classic. It's an experimental film again with structure. There's Dreams within Dreams and ghosts within reality and it's very imaginative and it's very ambitious about pushing the silent film into different corners to imagine what cinema could be.”
