Victor Sjostrom's flashback has the taste of "Wild Strawberry", and the image of the god of death and the scythe in hand can be reminiscent of "The Seventh Seal". The earliest source of "The Shining" chopping the door is here. Not only Bergman and Kubrick were also influenced by this film. The appearance of religion, the essence of love, works best for me. Music is also good.

Beyond the cinematic lens language of the era, the flashback processing can still kill many modern films in seconds. I love the transparency technique of film overprinting, and the unparalleled wonderful graininess of silent films. The emotions and expressions of the actors are not as exaggerated as the comedies of the Keaton Chaplin era, and there is none of the rigidity that comes with silent films. The soundtrack is superb. The spirit of fraternity revived is touching. Bergman says Ghost Carriage was a big influence on him. All in all, this movie is perfect!
