The Seventh Seal
Topic: Film & TV
Posted: Fri, Feb 2, 2007 
I first saw The Seventh Seal in college, but it was late, and pretty much all I remember was how cool it was that a knight was playing a game of chess with death. And yes, playing chess with death is still a very good reason to like this movie, but as I discovered upon a second, more lucid viewing (prompted by my continued quest to see 1001 great movies before I die) this is a wonderfully rich film that has as much to say about death as it does life.
The Seventh Seal is set in medieval times (the epoch, not the dinner theater) during the crusades and the plague, and centers around a knight, Antonius Block (Max Von Sydow), who is returning home after 10 years of “spreading the gospel” with his squire Jons (Gunnar Bjornstrand).

Hello there! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with SEO? I'm trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I'm not seeing very good gains. If you know of any please share. Many thanks!
