Jackie and Greg return to Ingmar Bergman for his late-career masterpiece FANNY AND ALEXANDER from 1982. Topics of discussion include the film's autobiographical nature, the sweeping cast of characters, the balance of light and dark, a comparison between the theatrical and television versions, and the literal magic and wonder that permeate the film. It's the ultimate Christmas movie.
