Criterion Reflections – Episode 55 – Ingmar Bergman’s The Touch

David is joined by Jordan Essoe and first-time guest, television director Norman Buckley, to discuss this long-neglected English language film by Ingmar Bergman.

Criterion Reflections is David Blakeslee’s ongoing project to watch all of the films included in the Criterion Collection in chronological order of their original release. Each episode of this third season of the podcast features conversations with a variety of guests offering insights on movies that originally premiered in 1971 and were destined to eventually bear the Criterion imprint. In this episode, David is joined by Jordan Essoe and Norman Buckley to discuss The Touch, directed by Ingmar Bergman.
