Biography
Liv Ullmann (b. 1938) was born in Tokyo to Norwegian parents, and before the family returned to Norway she lived for a time in the USA and Canada. She studied acting in London but debuted in film in Norway. In the most significant phase of her career, working with Swedish director Ingmar Bergman, she portrayed powerful female roles (Persona, Hour of the Wolf, Cries and Whispers, Autumn Sonata, etc.). She established herself as a feature director with Sofie (1992), and shot two subsequent films based on scripts written by Bergman: Private Confessions (1996) and Faithless (2000). The director approached the demanding epic Kristin Lavransdatter (1995), based on the novel by Nobel Prize-winner Sigrid Undset, as a project both highly personal and at the same time national. During shooting, she put to good use her ample acting experience and knowledge of Bergman's directing work. As an added bonus, she asked Sven Nykvist to stand behind the lens. The film broke every Norwegian cinema attendance record.
