EFSP's Dazzling Dozen: Ingrid Bergman - Sinner or Saint?

In the 1940s, Swedish actress Ingrid Bergman became one of Hollywood's brightest stars. Whether acting the role of saint or sinner, Bergman found in her characters the extremes of her own devoted and passionate nature. When she fell in love with Italian director Roberto Rossellini, she fell from grace and American authorities branded her "an apostle of degradation". Today twelve collectors cards of two her best roles -  as 'sinner' Alicia in Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious (1946) and as Jeanne d'Arc in Joan of Arc (Victor Fleming, 1948). And was Bergman herself a sinner or a saint? Neither, she was a modern Swedish woman and a terrific actress.
