(10378) Ingmarbergman Main-belt Asteroid
Discovered on 14 July 1996 by E. W. Elst at La Silla.
Ingmar Bergman (b. 1918) has achieved worldwide fame with films such as Det sjunde inseglet (The Seventh Seal, 1956) and Smultronstöallet (Wild Strawberries, 1957). Although his films are morally complex, they can also be hopeful and lovely.Naming citation (WGSBN Bull. 3, #13, 7), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
