Trivia:

In the end, where some of the characters are doing the "death dance", most of the actors had gone home for the day. The unique light of the day and peculiar cloud formations in the sky caught Bergman's eye, so he gathered together crew members to act out the scene.

Quote: Antonius Block

Nothing escapes you!

Death

Nothing escapes me. No one escapes me.
