Wild Strawberries is probably one of the most accessible (and best), and The Virgin Spring (as a rape-revenge film) is also fairly straightforward. Persona is one which took me several viewings to uncover all the layers. Pretty much all Bergman's films demand your full attention and improve on repeated viewings of that film and others written and directed by him.
