As far as I know, this is a forum of movies, not people. Should we post in the HL2 section when Gabe dies?

Anyway, I'll post this clip here as well, since it's my favorite from that movie:

If you want to see a good Bergman movie, though, go and see Fanny & Alexander. Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time.
