About the Film:

Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal is invariably in the list of greatest films ever made. The film catapulted the director into international fame and it also won the Grand Jury prize at Cannes in 1957. Set during the medieval age, the story, inspired by Bergman's own play, is about a knight (played by Max Von Sydow) and a duel that he has with 'death' with a game of chess. The film has several iconic scenes and right from Monty Python to Muppets and Iron Maiden, they have all paid some sort of a tribute to this all time classic.
