Ingrid Bergman was one of her photographer father’s favourite subjects.
She once said, “I didn’t choose acting. It chose me.”
When she was two and a half years old her mother died and when she was 14 her father died. Later she said, “The theater was my mother and my father.”
and “I have had my different husbands, my families. I am fond of them all and I visit them all. But deep inside me there is the feeling that I belong to show business.”
She died at midnight on her birthday, August 29, in 1982.
Does that mean something?

it always amazed me how so much more beautiful women became from the 1930’s to the 1940’s....the hair, the style,....and Bergman was near the top....”CASABLANCA” ..1942...just wow.
It means nothing.
Bergman, while a great actress, was a very flawed and morally compromised human being - like many in her profession.
Regards,
I find that two founders and signatories, both former POTUS, reconciled (in later life) political opposites, both died within hours of each other on July 4 1826, much more interesting than the life and times of Bucktooth Bergman.
364 to 1 unless it’s leap year.
BFD. My Grampa died on his birthday too.
It’s actually less odds than that. You are 14% more likely to die on your birthday than any other day. Shakespeare also died on his. Not such an “amazing fact”.
I don’t see how this could possibly qualify as “amazing”. The odds are quite high that a person may die on their birthday.
It’s not absolutely certain but there’s evidence Shakespeare died on his birthday too.
These posts are the worst click-bait blog-trash on this forum.
If I were dying of a terminal disease I’d almost wish bumbledummer would come back and harass this poster. But I’m not that desperate.
Dark Helmet: I am your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate.
Lone Star: So what does that make us?
Dark Helmet: Absolutely nothing.
My dad died on his 85th birthday in a hospital due to lung problems. Odds being 1 in 365.25. If those were lotto odds I’d take them.
I often look into the background of attractive Hollywood actresses. I am always amazed at how utterly messed up they are. Almost without exception they have a very high body count (sexual partners) and are just plain messed up only seemingly holding it together for brief periods of time in public or to work on a project, otherwise, pretty well battle scared. And the more attractive they are the worse off they seem to end up.
Hollywood is the ultimate meat grinder.
My mother died on her birthday also. My youngest sister was also born on mom’s birthday. I always found that a little weird.
People tend to do riskier things on their birthday, like going skydiving.
My MIL died on her birthday. Toward the end, we were just hoping she could go home from the hospital and make it until her birthday. God granted both.
Statistically speaking, it happens to 1 in 365 people.
It’s not eggzakly an oddity.
My spelling of “exactly” is much odder
