At a rate of, currently, 20 films a year the Swedish film industry is on par with many other North European countries. Coming to the fore in the 1950s and 1960s with a spate of Ingmar Bergman films including The Seventh Seal.

Swedish cinema can be traced back to 1911 with director August Strindberg. This period of Swedish cinema proceeded for a couple of decades producing infamous names including Greta Garbo. As happened to many other countries much of the industry soon migrated to Hollywood.

  • excised. Not really the basis for much, and I believe it confuses Stringdberg with Sjöström. Jun-Dai 22:56, 26 June 2005 (UTC)
    • Well, the 20 films per year figure is certainly notable. I'm putting that back in.--Pharos 05:31, 28 June 2005 (UTC)

Post War

As Sweden is officially neutral this heading is something of a misnomer. User:glimfeather 13:08, 29 March 2008 (UTC).

One of the most widely-known national cinemas in the world

I'm removing this sentence, because I just can't figure out what it means. Most widely known means the one that generates more money? Does more publicity? Is better acclaimed? Is more seen abroad? And what does "national cinema" mean? Cinema produced in one country instead of being a collaboration? Ciname made outside of the only civilized country in the world? Ciname with nationalistic overtones? I just can't find out. --FixmanPraise me 23:57, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
