The Magician (Ansiktet), directed by Ingmar Bergman (The Seventh Seal, Fanny And Alexander), is an engaging, brilliantly conceived tale of deceit from one of cinema`s premier illusionists. Max von Sydow (The Virgin Spring, The Exorcist) stars as Dr. Vogler, a mid-nineteenth-century traveling mesmerist and peddler of potions whose magic is put to the test by a small town`s cruel, eminently rational minister of health, Dr. Vergerus (Wild Strawberries` Gunnar Bjornstrand ). The result is a diabolically clever battle of wits that`s both frightening and funny, shot in rich, gorgeously gothic black and white.
