It seems to have returned to the era of silent films: the film of the film, the love of light and shadow and the abandonment of words, the language is only a decoration, but has no expression effect;
The relationship between the two characters, rather than believing that the nurse is assimilated by the actor's side, is more credible to me, and the director gave a lot of information in the film (the amount is even too much, which hinders the hidden beauty);
Maybe the reason for only watching it once, I feel that the emphasis on intergenerational relations in the film is not immune to the difference in the focus of the portrayal. Perhaps Bergman prefers to depict the theme of the mother-son relationship, and this theme is the main theme, which can connect the key themes in the film.
In this film, Bergman demonstrates in a non-verbal form the separation of man from society and the alienation of man; for the relationship between man and society, Bergman seems to prefer to use marriage and the intergenerational relationship between children; So far (movie as a medium is such a fart effect, it is impossible to ask for more depth): the deception of life and what the self is;
Perhaps such themes are indeed, can not be expressed, can only be expressed, put into a specific situation, use the story to resonate with the likes, as the film said: "What matters is our efforts, not the achievements we have achieved. Is it right"
