The Movie: Wild Strawberries (1957)
What Is It?: Ingmar
Bergman puts his bleakness in the cupboard to make a very touching portrait of
an old grump’s journey to receive a Doctor Jubilaris degree. Along the way, he
meditates on his past, present, and future; picks up hitchhikers; and picks the
title fruit.
Why Today?: Today
is National Pick Strawberries Day.
