New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
If you’re only a casual observer of Bergman, you’ll find this documentary as inaccessible as his densest works.
Los Angeles Times by Gary Goldstein
Although enjoyable, the movie is perhaps best suited to cinéastes already intimate with Bergman's venerated body of work as well as with Ullmann's many acclaimed screen roles.
Liv & Ingmar is an anecdotal treasure chest for cinephiles, but more than that, it's a beautifully told love story.
