>the only people who name the seventh seal as their favourite movie are people who haven't seen many other bergman movies
which is curious, because you'd think that as they liked it so much they'd be keen to explore the rest of the director's work

You're projecting. You consciously choose yours favorites, so you assume everyone else does as well. If they haven't chosen correctly, you assume it's because they aren't sufficiently knowledgeable. If they were, you reason, they would have chosen a favorite that is representative of their knowledge of film.

But Woody Allen, the guy who frequently references Bergman in his work, lists "The Seventh Seal" as his favorite Bergman film (and his favorite film, period); does that mean that he isn't familiar with Bergman's other work? No. He could have listed "Sawdust and Tinsel" as his favorite if he wanted to seem contrarian, or "Cries and Whispers" or "Persona" if he wanted to to choose something adored by critics without seeming like a novice, but "The Seventh Seal" is the one he actually likes best. That's what "favorite" means.

you consider yourself quite the highbrow, but have only a surface appreciation for art and generally only pretend to like it to appear cultured. chopin appeals to you the most of the classical composers because his music is soft and relaxing and doesn't require too much mental energy to take in. generally you confine yourself to the nocturnes which can be listened to in the background to create a pleasing ambience
secretly you found the godfather kind of slow and boring, but it has enough acclaim that you convince yourself that it is a masterpiece that you love
you have dutifully finished war and peace; it is by far the longest and most cultured book you have ever read. now you have done, you tell people how good it is constantly, even though reading it was a chore and you have read little else of worth
