    "Sometimes it's like a dream, not mine, but someone else's, but I'm caught up in it too. What if the dreamer wakes up and is ashamed?" What happens when he wakes and is...

    It's also quite rare to see Bergman use some traditional, even Hollywood-style, theatrical means, especially in the first third. As a whole, I think of blue, white, red and white. The male protagonist uses demonic ruthlessness to "strike back" the "equality", "dignity" and "spiritual status" that he lost step by step in the first two-thirds of the movie. Fight for what? Are you striving for "disgrace" or striving for your dominance in the relationship between men and women? Of course, it still...

    It should be called Angst (anxiety) than Shame (shame), everything is pushing people to the apex of anxiety: the anxiety of reproduction, the anxiety of war...Women force men to cheer up, and the sound of guns sounds like someone is constantly knocking on the door , and the bells kept ringing. From composition to behavior, Gunnar's character represents a war-like will to power that is constantly provoking and dismantling the relationship between the two protagonists. The soldiers behind the...

    War exposes the evil of human nature, makes cowardly people cruel, and makes conscience, sympathy and morality worthless. Bergman maximally interprets the meaning of war with melancholy. The overall quality of the film is average, with powerless war scenes, blunt derailment sections, and strong literary style....

    The introduction before the opening said that the film was shot during the Vietnam War, which may be the director's thinking and attitude towards the war. After reading it, I understand why the title is Shame, Liv Ullmann's eyes are really...

    The author empties the background of the war, and takes the life of a former artist couple as an intervention to lead the audience to wander through an absurd and cruel alien dimension, witnessing the depravity of human nature and thus criticizing the evil of war. The two dream narratives at the beginning and the end, one is a bad omen and the other is awakening, and in the middle is the endless wandering of the soul, from escaping from the house to escaping back to the house to the burning of...

    I watched it on 8.0 2020.10.18 and accidentally deleted it. The always calm Bergman used turbulent hand-held, faceless war, gradually destroyed the Garden of Eden, distant artillery fire, distant shooting, distant corpse, the distant view attitude adopted does not make me feel how much critical force, The alienation of human nature by war (a cliché) does not arouse any heartache and righteous indignation. Some passages are well...

    The least obscure of Bergman's films, it starts with a dream and ends with a dream. The extreme environment of wartime makes human emotions weak, suspicion and betrayal follow one after another, external conflicts and internal complex personalities collide with each other, the whipping of human nature and the torture of the soul make everything like...

    8/10. Observing the conflict between husband and wife in a situation of material scarcity and extremely closed social relations, the husband is extremely concerned about physical needs, and after the crisis of burning out the chicken, sweet potatoes and daily necessities, he has an overreaction. war between. Bergman is deeply fascinated by the theme of human hell, pushing a wheelbarrow to board the ship and encountering some people carrying...

Shame quotes

  • Eva Rosenberg: Sometimes everything seems just like a dream. It's not my dream, it's somebody else's. But I have to participate in it. How do you think someone who dreams about us would feel when he wakes up. Feeling ashamed?

  • Eva Rosenberg: I had a dream. I was walking down a very beautiful street... and on one side there were white houses, with high arches and pillars. On the other side, there was a shady park. Under the trees which were growing near the street. there was a stream of dark green water. And then I came to a high wall, and it was overgrown with roses. And then came an airplane and set the roses on fire. But it wasn't too awful since it was so beautiful. I watched the reflections in the water, and saw how the roses burned. And I had a little child in my arms. It was our daughter. She clung to me... and I felt her lips touching my cheek. And the whole time I knew that I should remember something... something someone had said... but I had forgotten what it was.
