Ingemar Bergman's Lost Soap Commercials
Famous Swedish avant garde film director Ingemar Bergman died at the age of 89 a few days ago. In 1951 Bergman made a series of bizarre soap commercials for Swedish television.

Update: When Lester Bilbo posted this it worked fine. Now, for unknown reasons, it doesn't. When sites go down for no good reason it drives the B-man nuts. If you Google Bergman soap you can find Bergman's soap commercials.
