    For Monica, love is just a speedboat to escape reality. When the speedboat sails towards marriage and returns to reality, the bad girl's choice is naturally to escape...

    Bergman’s characters always have more or less his projections in them, and the last half an hour is not condensed enough, but the scheduling is really good, especially the use of...

    Barely passing. In just 96 minutes, it accommodates the complete process of a pair of lovers hooking up and becoming a rape (by mistake), an isolated island honeymoon (this film reminds me of Mishima Yukio’s "Tide Sao"), Fengzi’s marriage, and the complete process , But even so, I still feel dragged. This is a love tragedy caused by nature and class limitations. If Bogman’s every film is talking about "something does not exist", this one The theme can be boiled down to "love fairy tales do not...

    From the current point of view, it is the story of the brain-disabled girl, and I don’t think Monica can be called a "girl" at all. I think she is lazy more than...

    [October 2019 Bergman √] It is said that Bergman successfully entered the American market...The structure is extremely rigorous, full of echoes and contrasts between the drama and the audiovisual, the performance is wonderful, and the description of the class is slightly stereotyped , But the play on the impact of the native family on people is still very precise. Monica is quite a new heroine who loves and hates. The scene of the two people wandering around the world in the second act is...

    The most exciting thing is when Monica and her boyfriend Halle suffered multiple blows during the elopement, she asked herself: "Why do some people always have good luck, and some people never have it." This Sentence torture reveals a unique feature of human psychology, that is, that we are always convinced that we will have good luck, and it is this psychology that distinguishes humans from other animals. In fact, it’s not a bad girl, she just sticks to her...

    Halle and Monica have completed their self-identification through movies (Song of Love, Lawless Lover), an isolated boat, and a weak enemy (Riley). Their union is based on the "us against world" attitude. So the story begins to reverse when Monica walks into the rich man’s house. When they return to the land, as these elements disappear, their separation is...

    The most miserable thing is: this tragedy is so taken for granted. From the first time we met with Monica, we and him were touched by the nature of this woman, but in the end we were still helplessly greeted; that long summer day Love travel (really stinky and long) can't even be called resistance. How can a man not be heartbroken in the scene of hiding behind the...

    The biggest regret of this year’s Shanghai Film Festival is that I didn’t like Bergman. I was a little scared of him when I watched "The Seventh Seal". After 1989, I saw this one a little lighter and thought it would be a good one. At the beginning, the result is still not working. The girl has a sexy and lively side, but such charm is not enough for her to be like this. It's a pity, because there are passages I like in the film, but I can't like the protagonist and the whole story. The way of...

    1. The rebellious escape of a derailed person, the new wave after the start of the new wave, is also a film in Chu Fu [四百击]. 2. It's a pity that romance and freedom will eventually be broken by reality. At the beginning of the movie, Monica burst into tears and Harry yawned again and again, which is the epitome of the two people's different paths. 3. Bergman's breath: the disintegration motif of the family, close-up-Monica gazes at the audience, the mirror reflections of the beginning and the...
