The key to Bergman's vision, naturally, is Mrs. Alving herself, whom the director sees as "a Nora who never slammed the door-both victim and executioner, sophisticated liar, and merciless truth-teller at the same time."

As it happens, August had never played Mrs. Alving before, but having already provided Bergman with a truly stunning Nora, she understood the director's comparison implicitly. "I didn't have any set idea of Mrs. Alving, [but] the first thing Ingmar told me was she's like a big sister to Nora and that was the first thing to help charge up my imagination," says August. ~ g,o Bergman's rethinking of Ibsen's play is hardly .!l?"

And that's hardly surprising: feel closer to. But with infectious enthusiasm, if there's one playwright even more closely she offered this: "When you work with Ingmar associated with Bergman than Ibsen, it's the Bergman, Ibsen is so close and Strindberg is so great mad Swede. And following Bergman's close. And when Ingmar says something like stage career over the years, theater-goors may 'I'm afraid Ibsen is not happy with this,' he have discerned a kind of tug-of-war as to which really believes it and it becomes so real.
