Cinema Classics: The Seventh Seal

Sunday, July 13 at 4 PM

“Full of haunting, iconic images and a touch of hopeful humanity, The Seventh Seal is cinema at its most artful, a philosophical meditation on the meaning(lessness) of this mortal coil.”
— Jamie Russell, BBC.com

KPAC presents THE SEVENTH SEAL as part of our Cinema Classics series, featuring films chosen by our Classic Films Committee. Disillusioned and exhausted after a decade of battling in the Crusades, a knight encounters Death on a desolate beach and challenges him to a fateful game of chess. Much studied, imitated, even parodied, but never outdone, Bergman’s stunning allegory of man’s search for meaning, The Seventh Seal (Det sjunde inseglet), was one of the benchmark foreign imports of America’s 1950s art-house heyday, pushing cinema’s boundaries and ushering in a new era of moviegoing. Sponsored by Palouse Sky Ranch – Cheryl and Donna.
