I can't expect people to decide that they will change with me, so I can see why I'm on the old side.
Liv UllmannI realize that we've come to a different way of showing movies. But I'm still with the old ways, and I can't change.
Liv UllmannSometimes I get a little tired of it. But you know, what a privilege, to get tired of working with Ingmar Bergman.
Liv UllmannAugust Strindberg gave me the opportunity to have this incredible story [Miss Julie ], about the class system, about unfairness in life, but also this story about man and woman. What I wanted, because he gave me the freedom, to give her a voice that I missed a little in her.
Liv UllmannWe need feminist voices today, you know. In my time, we had incredible feminist voices and I'm sure we have it today, too, but in all the massive outlets, maybe the one or two or three voices are somehow disappearing.
Liv UllmannWhat I have always loved most in men is imperfection. I get moved by the wrinkles on the throat of a man. It makes me love him more. I think it is sad that more women don't take the chance that maybe men will be moved by seeing the chin a little less firm than it used to be, that a man will be more in love with his wife because he remembers who she was and sees who she is and thinks, God, isn't that lovely that this happened to her. And be moved by life telling its story there.
