Three people, one location - That's all Ingmar Bergman needs for a masterpiece. Just as in so many of his finest films, the setting is intimate, the implications universal. "After the Rehearsal" is incredibly simple, frugal, straightforward and doesn't do anything unnecessarily. This review shall emulate those admirable qualities. An aging director in a night that spans an ending life. Guilt, regret, detachment - All wrapped up in brilliant dialogue. Do you like "BoJack Horseman"? You'll love "After the Rehearsal"!
