Science vs. magic, love vs. potion, faces can be disguised, and death can be tricked. What is true and what is false? Similarly, for the film itself, until the last second, it is impossible to tell whether it is a horror thriller or a comedy; especially when the happy music suddenly stops in the countdown seconds, one cannot help but wonder if such a happy ending is due to the director. original intention. It's definitely the weirdest comedy I've seen so...

The confrontation between science and pseudoscience, the discussion of life and death is still very Bergman, the attic scene is full of tension, and the two faces of the magician are ultimately no match for the royal summons, a rather ironic...

fantastic! This completes the confounding of the characters in the double confounding story and the confounding to the audience. Isn't Bergman the Volger who walked into the theater with cinematic psychedelics! When the audience, like a scientist, thinks that they have already seen through the tricks of the movie, when we think that the truth has been revealed by the narrative perspective, but in fact, Bergman has been deceived again and again, Bergman is at least two levels higher than Nolan,...

Loved Bergman's early comedy style so much. Vicious banter, circus-like joy, and spooky fairy tales. The dignitaries who blindly believe in science are frightened by false magic, and their ugliness is exposed, and they accidentally expose their inner jealousy, hypocrisy, and...

The Magician Comments
-
Johan Spegel: [Vogler has come across a sick man lying in the forest near the road] Good day, sir. My name is Johan Spegel. I am very ill, as you can see. Would you alleviate my suffering with a little brandy? For brandy is my infirmity, but its remedy too.
Johan Spegel: [Vogler gives the man some brandy, which seems to revive him] I am an actor. In fact, a member of the famous Stenbourg troupe. But my illness has put an end to my career.
Johan Spegel: [Vogler helps the man to his feet, whereupon Spegel takes a closer look at Vogler] Are you an actor too?
Johan Spegel: [Vogler mutely shakes his head "no"] Then why the disguise? Your beard is fake, and your eyebrows and hair are dyed. Are you a swindler who must conceal his true face?

Tubal: [the magician Vogler and his entourage have been detained at Consul Egerman's residence for an informal questioning before they will be allowed to perform their act in the town] All of you keep quiet. I'll do the talking.
Tubal: [goes and sits down by Granny Vogler] I must especially ask Granny to keep her trap shut. And another thing: Granny can make things jump around. Granny knows what I mean. Tables go flying, chairs fall over, lights go out. We all know Granny's tricks, but be good and behave... for all our sakes.
Granny Vogler: Yes, I understand... perhaps.
Tubal: God, this woman makes me nervous. Remember what you did in Ostend?
Granny Vogler: No, I don't believe I do.
Tubal: Granny's tricks are out of date. They're not amusing, and they can't be explained. Granny ought to be dead.
Granny Vogler: [chuckling] Ah, those were merry times in Ostend.
Tubal: I was thrown in the clink, Vogler was fined, and Granny was flogged in the town square. Yes, those were merry times in Ostend!
