My eldest sister took me to see a showing of the Bergman film at a restored movie palace in D.C. when I was about thirteen, so I was totally swept away by the glamour. It's sad nobody remembers the original play most of the movies are based on was by a French woman playwright who wrote about historical female figures. I like the question of identity at the story's center: if someone can 'fake' an identity well enough, does it matter if they're not 'really' that person? (Anna Anderson was proven not to be Anastasia through DNA testing years later.) But like sovay said, in the end it doesn't matter, even if she's the 'same' person, she really isn't. Her family is dead, that world is dead, that identity is dead, even if she can successfully re-animate it.

I haven't seen the Disney film because I really dislike what is to me 'late' Disney (LOL, mostly the nineties stuff). I just don't like the way they look. (I really like the songs from Moana, but I tried watching it and -- still nope.)
