Diary Entry forThe Seventh Seal
Death follows everywhere you go, it’s unavoidable and inevitable. You can’t even beat death at chess, he will cheat and find a way to win. The idea of the chess board being pieces of Antonius Block life is very interesting, with death slowly taking away piece by piece. The result of the game can never change, by the order the pieces are moved in can be.

The Seventh Seal
Si tan solo se hubiera enfocado el filme en Block jugando con todo y aferrándose a su vida con toda clase de tácticas en el ajedrez ante la muerte…y no en varias escenas que para mí sobraron. Aún así, es disfrutable con un final tétrico pero esperanzador.
The Seventh Seal
First revisit in many years. One thing I missed, totally missed, in those first Super Serious Important Film viewings was the humor, the approachable quality of it all. Laughter, tears, serene silence. And such faces! Consider the world, consider your end and all the creases of life, the blood yet pulses through your veins, the sun is still high in the sky, today you play chess with Death!
The Seventh Seal
The Seventh Seal is thoughtful, atmospheric, and rich with symbolism. The existential themes about faith, death, and meaning are powerful, even if the pacing is slow and demanding. Overall, The Seventh Seal is a profound and memorable classic that rewards patience and reflection. I would rate the film 4.3/5.
The Seventh Seal
“— Who are you? — I am death. — Have you come to take me? — I have long walked at your side. — That I know. — Are you ready?”
