Considered among Bergman's classic films, not sure if Seventh Seal still deserves it's status. The themes are serious and the acting excellent, especially Von Sydow and Gunnar Bjornstrand . But the constant philosophical monologues about god, existence, death etc become tiresome. There's also a certain staged quality about a number of scenes. The one with the actor in the tree while death saws it down comes to mind. Overall a good film but I would say no longer a great one.
