Not sure how to go back and edit that far back, so I will post a correction pointed out by someone who stopped by, that I incorrectly attributed the Bergman parody film I love so much to Woody Allen, when it is actually the people listed below. So sorry. Glad to get it right here.

Hey, thank you B Andrews for the correction. My bad. Not Woody Allen. 'Love and Death' must be what stuck in my head, but "Die Duva" is the film I was referring to here, the one I got the biggest kick out of. I may go back and correct the post, but here is the corrected poop:

the dove (de düva)

Directed by George Coe & Anthony Lover

1968

With a quick synopsis from http://mason-west.com/Bergman/dove.shtml:

This short film is a parody of two of Ingmar Bergman's best known films: Wild Strawberries (Smultronstaellet) and The Seventh Seal (Det Sjunde Inseglet). The dialog, seemingly in Swedish, is actually Swedish-accented English with most nouns ending in "ska". The principal character, Professor Viktor Sundqvist, 76, is being driven to a lecture at the university, when dove droppings splatter the car's windshield. Detouring at his uncle's old house, his mind wanders back to his youth, when Death came to a family picnic to claim his sister, Inga. Knowing that Death is a gambler, Viktor has Inga challenge Death to a single-point game of badminton for her life. While they are playing, a dove flies above, soiling Death's cape, and distracting him enough to miss the birdie. Having won the game, Inga is free, and she and Viktor run off for a swim in the lake.

And, as the late great Madeline Kahn would say in the film, "Phallica Symbol?" (Subtitle: "Would you like a cigar?")
