Sydow, Max von

Swedish actor

original name Carl Adolf von Sydow

born April 10, 1929, Lund, Sweden

Swedish stage and screen actor perhaps best known for his dour, brooding characterizations in films of the Swedish director Ingmar Bergman (Bergman, Ingmar).

Interested in the theatre from childhood, Sydow studied at the Royal Dramatic Theatre School in Stockholm (1948–51). He established his reputation as one of Sweden's most promising young actors at the Norrköping-Linköping Municipal Theatre (1951–53). He then gained popularity at the Municipal Theatre in Helsingborg (1953–55), the Municipal Theatre of Malmö (1955–60), and the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm (1960–62), where he appeared in productions as varied as William Shakespeare's King John and Arthur Miller's After the Fall.

Sydow made his film debut in a minor part in 1949. His first Bergman (Bergman, Ingmar) film was the allegory Det sjunde inseglet (1957; The Seventh Seal), in which he portrays a gaunt knight who plays a game of chess with Death. Sydow's aloof presence and the spiritual complexity of the characters he portrays contribute significantly to the gloomy atmosphere and ambiguity characteristic of Bergman's films. He also appeared in other Bergman films, including Ansiktet (1958; British title, The Face; American title, The Magician), Jungfrukällan (1960; The Virgin Spring), Sasom i en spegel (1961; Through a Glass Darkly), Nattvardsgästerna (1963; Winter Light), Skammen (1968; Shame), and En passion (1969; The Passion of Anna).

During the height of his career in Sweden, Sydow also appeared in a number of American films, portraying Christ in The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965) and a fanatical missionary in Hawaii (1966). His later English-language films include The Exorcist (1973), Voyage of the Damned (1976), and Three Days of the Condor (1976). In 1982 he appeared in the Swedish film Ingenjör Andrées luftfärd (The Flight of the Eagle).

Von Sydow's career took a downturn in the 1980s when he appeared mostly in insignificant character roles. He had memorable moments in films such as Never Say Never Again (1983), Dreamscape (1984), and Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), but not until 1988 did he revive his career with an Oscar-nominated performance in Pelle erovraren (Pelle the Conqueror). After that he turned in fine performances in numerous international films, including the American productions Awakenings (1990), A Kiss Before Dying (1991), What Dreams May Come (1998), and Snow Falling on Cedars (1999). At the beginning of the 21st century, Von Sydow starred in such films as Minority Report (2002) and Le Scaphandre et le papillon (2007; The Diving Bell and the Butterfly).
