Bergman back in spotlight at Cannes

THERE’S no getting away from Ingrid Bergman at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

The actress’s youthful eyes stare out from the giant poster billboards speckled about town, special film screenings celebrate her classic movies, and her daughter, actress Isabella Rossellini, is at the festival as jury president of the Un Certain Regard competition.

Tuesday will also see Rossellini present a documentary, directed by Stig Bjorkman, called “Ingrid Bergman, in Her Own Words.” The 114-minute feature uses never-before-seen documents, diaries, letters and personal images from Bergman to tell the incredible story of how a young Swedish girl went on to win three Oscars and become one of the most respected actresses in world cinema. The film uses artifacts Bergman had handed down to her daughter just before she died of cancer in 1982.
