The Seventh Seal is one of those movies that shows up on all the top 100 movie lists. I watched it today and I guess I just don't understand what is so amazing about it. It was really interesting in many scenes, but it kind of dragged on and not much really happened throughout the film. The idea of the movie was based on murals the director saw at church as a child. A knight plays chess against death as the towns people around him are trying to survive and understand the black plague. It wasn't as great as I had expected, but it does feel like one of those movies you will always remember once you have seen it.
