De Düva

De Düva (1968)

De Düva is a 1968 Oscar-nominated American short film that parodies the films of Swedish director Ingmar Bergman, including Wild Strawberries and The Seventh Seal. The film borrows heavily from the plot lines of some of Bergman's most famous films. The dialogue, seemingly in Swedish, is actually a Swedish-accented fictional language based on English, German, Latin, and Swedish, with most nouns ending in "ska." The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film.

The Dove is a 1968 Oscar-nominated American short film that parodies the films of Swedish director Ingmar Bergman.

Background

The film was directed by George Coe and Anthony Lover. Madeline Kahn made her first film appearance, in a supporting role.

The film borrows heavily from the plot lines of some of Bergman's most famous films. There is a journey by car back to the location of childhood memories as in Wild Strawberries. The main characters meet with the shrouded figure of Death as in The Seventh Seal.

The dialogue and voice-over narration are spoken mostly in a heavily accented fictional language, which is mostly English made to sound like Swedish, with many of the nouns ending in "ska". (For example, the subtitled word "eventually" is spoken in dialogue as "sooner or lateska".) There is also a smattering of Yiddish words.

The film often was shown in repertory film houses as a short feature when Bergman films were on the bill; audiences frequently did not realize that the short was a comedy until individuals started laughing when they began to understand the fake Swedish. The subtitles, which often do not literally match the dialogue, add to the humor.
