Eva Dahlbeck, 1920-2008
AFP: Bergman actress Eva Dahlbeck dies aged 87: "Swedish actress and author Eva Dahlbeck, most famous for numerous appearances in movies by legendary filmmaker Ingmar Bergman, has died,... She was 87. Dahlbeck, who had long suffered from Alzheimer's disease, died at a Stockholm retirement home on Friday... Born on March 8, 1920, Dahlbeck was one of Sweden's most celebrated actresses in the 1940s and 50s and was most well-known for her lead roles in such Bergman films as his 1952 "Secrets of Women", "A Lesson in Love" (1954) and "Smiles of a Summer Night" (1955). Bergman himself died last July 30 at the age of 89. Dahlbeck, who attended Sweden's prestigious Royal Dramatic Theatre acting school, received the Eugene O'Neil Award in 1961 for her stage performances. She also wrote around a dozen novels."
