...anchored the mid-'50s films that brought Bergman his international esteem. He met Ullmann in 1964, and wrote Persona - the film that reestablished him as an artistic pioneer - in part so he could be with her. Ullmann became his muse for the next decade, most indelibly in the TV-serial-turned-film Scenes from a Marriage. She would also direct films from two of his late scripts, Private Confessions and Faithless, and star in his last work, Saraband, a sequel of sorts to Scenes from a Marriage...

The shows focused on male antiheroes and their loud, angsty Y-chromosome dramas: Tony, The Shield's Vic Mackey, Rescue Me's Tommy Gavin, Dexter's serial killer Dexter Morgan, Deadwood's Al Swearengen, 24's Jack Bauer.

The Kremlin, for its part, has been at pains to improve its image abroad, hiring U.S. and British public-relations consultants to help.
